Mums, we’re excited to bring you the Little Bellies Organic Baby Bowls review … with pure veg options too!
As mums there’s an overwhelming amount of choice in the market when it comes to baby’s first foods, and we want to make sure we’re making the right decisions, especially at the very beginning of our child’s lifelong food journey. That’s is why we’re so excited to bring back the Little Bellies Organic Baby Bowls review, with pure veg options for mums to try.
Little Bellies Organic Baby Bowls are for tiny taste buds at the very beginning of their lifelong food journey. At Little Bellies, they believe in doing what’s natural, and so their Organic Baby Bowls have been purposefully-designed to support natural child development. The range of baby grade organic veg, fruit and grain purees help introduce budding eaters to their first flavours and textures and are served up in a bowl format to support interactive spoon-feeding, encourage mindful eating practices and make your baby’s development priority number one.
Little Bellies LOVE SPOONING (#WeLoveSpooning) as spoon-feeding is especially important in aiding healthy development of oral motor skills and swallowing techniques, which helps transition your baby on to chunkier solid food. Eating with a spoon from the Little Bellies see-through bowls means true interaction between you and your baby and helps little ones see, touch and smell their food. The Little Bellies Organic Baby Bowls specifically come without a spoon, as the Little Bellies team believe that using a favourite spoon helps to create a familiar ritual that’s important in helping babies become more comfortable and accepting of a wider variety of foods in their diet.
Little Bellies aim to make it easy for us mums to identify the blends that are more suited for ‘main meal’ option vs other occasions. Variants are clearly named so that the flavours represent the exact ingredients used, and in true proportions, as per the ingredients list. With Organic Baby Bowls the main ingredients on the front of the pack are the lead ingredients included in the bowl, this isn’t the case with all baby foods available, but you can be confident with these bowls it is! The range includes Veggie bowls that have been intentionally designed to contain only pure veg, with no added or hidden fruit sugars. Little Bellies do use fruit as a key ingredient in many of their bowls, but they also believe the full sensory experience of a spoonful of pureed veggies should be celebrated by these palates-in-training.
The Little Bellies Organic Baby Bowls come in a combination of six simple and delicious certified organic pure veg options as well as fruit, veg and grain blends to introduce a variety of first flavours and textures to support your baby’s natural development.
Veggie Bowls are fruit-free purees for future veg lovers to introduce the first tastes of pure veggies to tiny taste buds.
Jumble Bowls are savoury blends, combining a mix of veg and grains, for main meals.
Goodie Bowls are wholesome fruit and grain-based blends, specially designed for those after-meal or in-between meal snacking moments.
Smoothie Bowls are fruit and oat-based breakfast purees for early risers.
Little Bellies Organic Baby Bowls are BPA free, portable, resealable, recyclable and and re-useable. Recycle the bowl, lid cardboard sleeve and dispose of plastic film thoughtfully. Or re-use the bowls to store your favourite Little Bellies snacks or to keep your own home-made purées.
Where can I buy Little Bellies Organic Baby Bowls? Little Bellies Organic Baby Bowls are $2.25, and are available from Woolworths and Coles stores nationally. The Sweet Potato, Pumpkin and Zucchini Veggie Bowl and the Apple, Apricot and Millet Goodie Bowl are only available at Woolworths.

I really love the idea of a reuseable bowl. My baby has been taking these Little Bellies ‘meals’ for the last week and he has loved them! He feels just like the rest of the family with his own little bowl too! The puree is smooth and is digested well. The flavour options also give a fair variety. Will recommend them to my friends!

Corbyn (10months) loved the smoothie bowls! They were the perfect meal size and were very tasty! He is at the age where he loves to feed himself so we had a spoon each and dove straight in. We have purchased more from Woolies and would highly recommend them to other mums!

These arrived at our door in perfect timing – my little man was just about to begin his solids journey! I already loved this brand as my first was addicted to the Baby Bellies puffs, so I felt very confident to use the Baby Bellies purée pots as my baby’s first solids.
Firstly, I love that they’re organic and don’t contain any added nastiest. The pot size is great, to start with I was using 1/3 pot and saving the rest into other small containers in the fridge. We’ve quickly progressed to a whole bowl at lunch now, though! I also like that some are fruit free, as I didn’t want my bub to develop a preference for only sweets at the beginning. The pea and carrot bowl has been a hit! We also love the sweet potato, carrot and brown rice.
Since the trial, I have purchased more bowls and mixed them through spiral pasta for bub to pick up and suck. He loves it!

It was a nice product, and my baby enjoyed it. I received a free sample of the organic carrot, sweet potato, and brown rice product, which had the ideal texture. She was able to eat everything in a short amount of time. Great flavours in a well-packaged package. Overall, a good baby product. .I also liked the fact that it was just the right size to fit into my nappy bag. The texture and flavour appealed to Baby.

I just love how convenient they are especially if your away & staying in hotel or even someone’s house who doesn’t have babies. I thought the price was reasonable. My mother seen me find my bub and said she wishes they were available when I was a child. Would definitely recommend. My bub loved the flavours. They would also be good when your having a day out or going out to a restaurant & not having to stress about pack a bowl etc.

This is a great option for feeding in a rush and my bub loves it. The only downfall is the cost however it’s worth it to have the peace of mind on a busy day that everything is ready to go and bub will actually eat it. I love that there are many flavors to choose from and that the bowl itself can be used to serve it so it eliminates extra work. It’s nice it’s reusable too! Overall a great option!

These are so convenient for road trips and quick meal stops. Love that the containers are recyclable. So handy and healthy which is fantastic.

My toddler son loves these too. He insisted he needed one when he saw them on the shelf so i figured why not. He loved it. He’s a fussy eater so anytime I can get good food into him is a bonus. I give them to him after some meals and he considers them a treat. A great thing for both of us. He gets his treat and I know he’s getting goodness too.

How to choose the best lunch box for school
When you’re searching for a kids’ lunch box, take the time to work out what will best suit their needs. If you make the right choice and invest in a quality one, it will last many years.
Box, bento or bag? If your child doesn’t like different foods touching, a bento lunch box is a great choice. Also, think about whether they prefer cut-up or whole fruit; a bento is better suited to cut food, while bags and boxes suit whole fruit. Bags are fantastic if you like to pack separate containers, like smaller bento or snack containers.
Freshness is a must – An insulated bag or box will keep everything cool and fresh until snack and lunchtime. But you can also get boxes that come with cold and ice packs. Remember, kids’ lunches often sit at room temperature for up to 5 or 6 hours before they’re eaten, so insulation and coolness are important. Check out how to keep school lunches safe in the heat.
Easy-to-clean design – Check if the box is dishwasher-safe, or for lunch bags, if they’re machine-washable.
Leak-proof – The last thing you want is a soggy mess at lunchtime, so if buying a hard lunch box, look for designs that are leak-proof with proper seals.
Child-friendly – Depending on your child’s motor skills and independence, you may need to start with a product that’s simple to open and close.
The right size – We tend to pack way too much in our kids’ lunches, so think about how much realistically you’ll need to pack for your child when choosing the size of their lunch box. You may also need to consider the size of their school bags.

After something a bit more mature? Bentgo’s Modern lunch boxes are a great option. They have a sleek matte finish in a choice of four stylish shades, including Mint Green, Orchid, Dark Grey and Navy. Each is cleverly designed with a removable divider that allows you to choose between using three or four compartments. Even better, they are leak-proof, microwave-safe and fine to pop in the dishwasher.
Colourful and easy to carry, these bags are insulated, eco-friendly and secure. It features aluminium foil lining that keeps food fresh all day long, and it comes with top-level carry handles and a shoulder strap, which is brilliant for those days when kids have a lot to tote.

Practical and customisable with your child’s name, these insulated bags tick all the boxes.

Each comes with a mesh pocket for ice bricks, a top carry handle, a secure zip closure and enough internal space to fit a medium bento box.

With their name on it, you won’t need to visit lost property!
With a leak-proof silicone seal, these colourful lunch companions keep sauces and dips right where they belong.

Finally, a kids’ lunch box that stores hot AND cold food in one place! Designed out of necessity by a problem-solving mum, the OmieBox encourages low-waste lunches and ends the need to use multiple clunky containers (which always get lost!). The spill-proof individual compartments mean no mixing of savoury and sweet, and the 280ml double-wall thermos keeps soups and pasta hot for up to six hours!
Health professionals agree that kids need a good balance of lean protein, grains, fruit and vegetables throughout the school day. Skip the processed food and try to reach for whole foods that pack a punch in the nutrient department. Here are some great ideas:
Grilled chicken or turkey wraps with fresh salad
Crackers and vegetable sticks with healthy dips like hummus
Whole-grain pasta with cherry tomatoes and your choice of cheese
Zucchini slice cut into rectangles for easy stacking in an insulated box
I do not know if anyone else has picked up on this or not, but every bag mentioned in the table above is a ‘designer’ brand. There are plenty of more affordable options that aren’t over $40. I have never spent that much on a lunchbox – even from Smiggle. The cheaper brands last just as well too.
Getting ready for the return to school has started to kick in so this was a timely read. We have the yum box and i love it, it is so easy for my daughter to open and close on her own. I find the lunch cooler bags also a great idea however some days depending on what else needs to go to school, they can be quite bulky to include in the school bag. I need to do some more research this year as i like the idea of being able to watch it in the washing machine, that is a clever idea.
Along with all of the other back to school products; there is also a good range of lunch boxes available for people to buy. It has been fun to see the wide range of bottles and lunch boxes that are available for the new year for school and for work.
Lunch boxes have come such a long way since my eldest was a kid, he’s now 26! There’s really a solution to everything from food heating, cooling, dividers, pockets etc etc. Lunch boxes are a real fashion accessory and so on-trend these days. I personally love the Bento lunch boxes. They save on plastic and separate different foods.
I am such a huge fan of Bento lunch boxes and Bento. Food should be so many wonderful things; including delicious, fun, colourful and nutritious too. Lunch is a favourite meal because the body is ready for some more calories and a boost of energy. Food looks so good in Bento lunch boxes.
So so many fantastic options! We use the montii co ones for our kdis and swear by it. Its lasted 3 years so far and still standing strong, like new since the first day using it. They are so durable and i find cleaning them to be the easiest for us.
There are so many great lunch box option out there indeed ! I’ve always liked the Bento style lunch boxes for my kids. It reduces the use of plastic lunch bags and packaged food which aren’t very good for the environment and it encourages to present a good variety of foods (which is not only better nutrition wise but lao to prevent our kids from getting bored with same foods all the time.
There are some really fabulous options here. So many variations of colour, shape and size. I love the bento style lunch boxes, so handy to keep food separate and eliminate the use of plastic packaging. The machine washable bags are a great idea too. They can get grubby so fast, this would be so much easier to maintain
This has gotten much easier since my kids hit high school – they have strong opinions about their lunch boxes, so I don’t have to think about it so much anymore! However, I am strongly in favor of bento style boxes regardless of their age. They’re easy to clean, easy to pack, and invite appropriate sized portions.
Great article! Our kids are so lucky, when it comes to lunchboxes, they really are spoilt for choice. There are so many to pick from. Regarding sandwiches, my eldest son, used to hate sandwiches for school lunches. It wasn’t until many years later that I discovered that he’d throw out his sandwiches in the playground bins. My son’s an adult now and he still hates sandwiches. He only likes “hot” lunches. So glad he lives on his own now and can make his own “hot” lunches just the way he likes them.
This is an extremely useful article!! 2 schppl going kids and third starting kinder soon means we are always on the lookout for lunch ideas and lunch boxes. This is a great list with features and prices listed to make the search easier and help with decision making for purchasing of the lunch boxes
This is super useful article and thank you. I can see so variety of lunch boxes from every store. Always wonder which one would be more convenient to use by little hands. I love some of these lunchboxes to give it a try for this year. And then decide to go with suitable ones
Wow, lunch boxes have really come such a long way from when I was taking a lunch box to school. Feel old, like “back in my day”, but we were lucky to have options like are available now. While I like some of these designs, I feel like they aren’t super practical.
These lunchboxes are beautiful but are they really worth the expensive price tag? I have been through so many lunch boxes and bags over the years and found the best it to use an insulated lunchbox bag with ice brick and use small containers to keep individual items fresh and assessable.
I love the bbox lunch boxes. They are so reliable and tough when kids throw their bags around. Easy to wash and store. I have used the we can be tiny snackies at home too. The boys love choosing a certain animal shape. They wash well, are durable and great quality.
My kids are old enough now to pack their own lunches and I am so happy to see the great choices they are making. They take left over meals, cook food in the morning to take and now I am confident they aren’t throwing away sandwiches! I do have the chilly bags for them, I find they fit better into bags
My daughter uses a bento box now for work and sometimes an insulated bag in summer, but when she was at school it was a rectangular lunch box with no compartments. It was very easy to wash each day, just the box and lid, and it could still be filled with rolls/sandwiches and snacks.
Lunchboxes are so important these days. Back in my day it was a brown paper bag or the exact same lunch box that everyone else had and there were three compartments. Today its such a fashion statement and as much as the lunchbox itself is judged so are the contents.
I absolutely love the bb box quite sturdy. It took many lunch box to find one that would last. Before this lunch box we had a stuck on you. I found the stuck on you lunch box didn’t last when the hinge’s snapped they wouldn’t get back to me (only had for a short time and my youngest couldn’t open it so it wasn’t dropped. Just opened it after the 8th time and snapped). The bb box has lasted the last year and a half and still going strong
