Less Mess: Snacks won't fly around even if you hold the bowl sideways. However, kindly take note that while it works well if you hold it by the handles and turn it slowly, it will spill out if you shake it or turn it too quickly. It is therefore preferable to keep the bowl covered when your baby reaches out for shaking.
Toy to Play: It can rotate 360 degrees when used as a toy, but please be aware that there is nothing in the bowl when you want to play this way.
