Sippy Cups


We have gone through so many of these because he hasn't grasped the concept and they all work differently.  The one that works the best for learning now is Munchkin brand and is in the above picture.  This is the 3rd one we've purchased!

The first one is in the picture shown above.  I think it is Gerber.  The handles wouldn't even match up straight so he could hold it properly.  Maybe that's why it was on clearance.  

We don't have a picture of it, but Gigi and Papa Jim have the Nuby brand.  I don't really remember how that one worked.



Here is the Thermos brand that we bought second. Nicely made, but it really takes some work to get liquid out.

The first two weren't conducive to learning, but we will use them once he understands how to suck.
He likes to chew on the spout part and since they were a little too spill proof, he didn't get the concept.  The Munchkin one is spill proof, but once he bites the end, it will leak a little into his mouth.  He understands then that liquid does come out and actually tries to work for it.  If I hold it in his mouth, he will suck on it.

As I type right now, he is rolling around with it in his mouth and using it as a rattle!
