I got this for my 2 year old grandaughter for when we go playing over on Cannock Chase during the colder months. She adores pasta so I decided to get this to take a hot snack in. We tried it two days ago as the temperature has dropped considerably. I mixed some hot pasta with a cheesy sauce and popped it into this little flask. After exploring the Gruffalo trail and playing in the park in the woods we were ready for a break. We sat at a bench, me with my hot tea and Eden with her pasta. I checked the temperature and it was perfect for a little one, not too hot or cold. She devoured the lot and finished her meal off with a banana. The conclusion, one happy and exhausted child, so much so she fell asleep on the 10 minute drive home. This little flask is just right for younger children and is easy to keep clean.
