Actually... ...to be fair to Tommee Tippee, I hadn't used that mat before making the above comment. I decided to try it to see if it was any use, and we've had a 2/2 success rate so far. Angelcake enjoyed experimenting with yoghurt and ready brek this week, dipping fingers in, sucking her spoon and tentatively licking food off of the spoon I loaded up...and failing to throw the bowl across the room! I'll keep you posted with how long it takes her.
