Fall Shopping Guide: Loopa Gyro Bowl: A space-age snack bowl for modern kids

While the Snack Trap (and Munchkin’s knock-off but, in my opinion, improved Snack Catcher) keeps your kid’s snacks in the cup through the use of soft flaps on the lid of the cup, the Loopa Gyro Bowl keeps snacks where they belong via a “reactive balancing system.”  As you can see, Anya can hold the Loopa over her head or sideways and the bowl keeps itself upright.

Note: I am contributing to a fall shopping guide sponsored by JC Penney.While I am being paid to write for the shoppingguide, I have complete freedom to review what I wish. Since I just cameback fromthe ABC Kids Expo and learned about lots of great baby and kid stuff, Iam focusing on those lines. I hope you enjoy these reviews.

I saw these yesterday at Bed Bath and Beyond.
They should be bigger, for ALL the messy eaters in the world….

What are the suggested age range on this snack bowl? Emma is constantly spilling goldfish or cheerios so this might come in handy!

Ok, so it keeps the snacks off the floor, but what about out of the nose? That is the problem I am currently having with my 1.5 year old. He sneezed out part of a goldfish cracker after nap. I think he stuffed it up there when I was getting his brother a snack.

Any ideas?

Hey Danielle?
What does Anya have on her feet?
They look like a type of Croc…

I need to get one of these! I loved the Snack Trap until my son realized he could take the lid off and now he pours his snacks out intentionally.
