Products

Why stainless steel? +

Stainless steel is the safest, most durable material you can choose for children's tableware.

It is naturally non-toxic, plastic-free, and free from BPA, phthalates and other harmful chemicals often found in plastics. It also won't stain, hold onto food odours, or break like ceramic or glass.

Is stainless steel safe for kids? +

Absolutely! Stainless steel has been used safely in kitchens for generations. It's strong, hygienic, and free from the chemicals commonly found in plastic tableware.

Is the tableware dishwasher safe? +

Yes — all Leo & Sun stainless steel tableware is dishwasher safe, making clean up easy for busy families.

Will the plates or bowls break if dropped? +

No. One of the best things about stainless steel is its durability. Unlike ceramic or glass, it won't shatter if dropped — which makes it ideal for little hands.

Is stainless steel heavy for children? +

Not at all. Our tableware is lightweight but sturdy, making it easy for little ones to use while still being durable enough to last for years.

Why Parents Choose Leo & Sun

Why choose stainless steel over plastic or silicone? +

Many parents today are trying to reduce plastic in their homes, especially when it comes to food and their children.

Stainless steel is a simple, safe alternative that doesn't leach chemicals, absorb food smells, or wear down over time. It's a material that can last for years — not months.

What makes Leo & Sun different? +

Leo & Sun was created from a simple desire — to have beautiful, safe, non-toxic tableware for kids without relying on plastic.

As a mum myself, I wanted products that were practical, durable, and safe for everyday family life — whether that's breakfast at the table, picnics outside, or meals on the go.

Every product we stock is something I genuinely use in my own home.
