Our son Mickele has been using his Mally leather bib since he first started on solids at 5 months old. He is now 17 months old and I have just ordered a toddler size bib for him. I love using the leather bib as it is so easy to clean. I just wipe it clean after each use, it dries quickly and is ready to go for next meal time. The bib is so hard wearing, Mickele's first bib will be given to his younger brother who will start on solids in 2 months time.
