Snap the plate. The food comes alive.

Dancing Plate turns your child's real plate into characters. You take the photo. They do the convincing. No pressure, no bribes.

A tool for parents of children ages 3 to 8.

How it works

Three steps. No bribes.

Children typically need 8 to 15 tries before they accept a new food. Dancing Plate turns every try into a game.
