Stainless Steel Kids Dinnerware: Ahimsa Brand Review

2 Mins read

A review of Ahimsa’s stainless steel kids dinnerware. Let’s be real, plastic dinnerware for kids is out. We’ve all seen the headlines about microplastics, BPA, and other chemicals that could be sneaking into our children’s food. And while silicone is an option, have your kids ever noticed that weird soapy aftertaste? Yeah, no thanks.

Ahimsa’s stainless steel dinnerware is a pediatrician-approved, non-toxic, and an ultra-durable alternative that’s built to last. I’ve tested it with my own kids, and I can confidently say: this is the upgrade we’ve been waiting for.

The Benefits of Stainless Steel Dinnerware

Across all high-quality stainless steel products, there are some major benefits that set them apart from plastic and silicone alternatives:

  • 100% food-grade stainless steel—no BPA, no melamine, no toxins.
  • Durable and long-lasting—built to withstand drops, spills, and everyday kid chaos.
  • Dishwasher safe—because no parent wants to hand wash extra dishes.
  • Non-staining, non-warping—unlike plastic, which can degrade over time.

Important Note: Stainless steel conducts heat. If you’re serving hot food or drinks, the plate, bowl, or cup itself may become hot. Let food cool slightly before serving to younger kids, and be mindful with hot beverages.

Ahimsa Stainless Steel Kids Dinnerware: Plates, Bowls, and Cups

Ahimsa takes everything great about stainless steel and makes it even better with its color options. We chose this gorgeous iridescent blue finish. It’s a fun, stylish touch my kids love. We bought a snack bowl, kids’ plate, and the conscious cup, all designed with both safety and practicality in mind. Here’s what makes each piece special:

  • Snack Bowl (12 oz): Perfect for snacks, cereal, or small meals. It’s lightweight yet sturdy and resists stains, warping, and wear
  • Kids’ Plate: Thoughtful compartments make portioning balanced meals easy because who’s had to deal with a tantrum due to touching food?
  • Conscious Cup (8 oz): Weighted at the bottom to prevent tipping, easy for little hands to grip, and built to last without any plastic waste

These pieces have been through the wringer in my house; 2-3 meal times, drops, dishwasher and washing cycles. And they still look brand new. Unlike plastic, these won’t stain, warp, or leach chemicals, and that iridescent blue color is really nice in person and even more fun for the kids.

Final Thoughts: Make the Switch

Plastic-free mealtime just makes sense; it’s safer, more sustainable, and these look way cooler. Ahimsa is leading the charge through thoughtful designs for safer, non-toxic alternatives to plastic. And that blue iridescent finish is so nice! These products have a lifetime warranty, which means you literally never have to buy another set of kids’ dinnerware again. If you’ve been thinking about switching to safer, more sustainable plates, bowls, and cups for your little one, now’s the time.

10 Years Later: Revisiting Our Wedding Registry & Modern Must-Haves

Oh the Wedding Registry. Over the last 10 years, things have changed. When we started the registry, we built it with practicality at the foundation. While we were building our registry at Macy’s and Bed Bath and Beyond (RIP and hello again), we were encouraged to “throw everything we could scan on there”.  I went to locate our registries to remind myself what we selected, but they’ve been lost to the internet coffins. Not to fear! I can figure out most of our registry by looking around the house.
