Skip Hop Toddler Sippy Cup with Straw, Zoo Straw Bottle, Butterfly

Ok, after many $, and tons of research, and many disappointments with other (more $) cups ~ THIS IS OUR FAVORITE!!! We've used these since for over 2 years now, soon as we gave up bottles. We tried SO MANY other options. Daddy wanted no spills. Well, you only get 0 spills if you get a cup with a valve, and both our Pediatrician and PD Dentist said NO VALVES for growing tooth buds and tiny jaws. Sorry, Daddy, there were spills. I tried many many other cups, months, and money wasted. These are my favorite.No, they are not spill proof. But they are pretty good in that respect. They are easy to use, easy to clean, cheerful, simple, fit into almost every single thing we ever need to put them into. Inexpensive, and they last a long long time! I even put them the dishwasher, and they are all still as cheerful, cute, and bright as can be! In a frenzy I bought 1, with about 8 other types of cups, back in the "learning to drink from a straw" months. Anything with a valve was too hard for her, and then the Drs said NO VALVES! So I got 6 of these. 2 years ago. I have never bought another cup since then, unless we were away, too long, without our own supplies.iI there is a perfect cup for preventing spills, it is probably not good for your baby's teeth and jaw formation. TRUST ME ~ this is the next best thing. We and she, still love them, it's still so much better than using an open cup around the house, (on the beige carpet), even though she is well capable of using open cups, she loves these, she drinks a LOT of liquids in them, and our carpet stays , well, fairly spot free. As with all in life, there is no clear perfection. But these are close! Don't torture yourself, just get them. Cute, cheap, cheerful, long-lasting, YAAYE!

My daughter had a hard time transitioning from the breast to bottles... but that was easier than getting her to stop drinking milk from baby bottles! We used Comotomo bottles, which are amazing at simulating the breast, but not so good once your child gets older. The pediatrician wanted us to stop bottles at 12 months... then conceded to make sure we stop by 18 months. We tried spouts, soft and hard, straws, everything. My daughter would drink water from the 360 cups, juice from nearly any bottle/cup, but milk? only Comotomos. Then, I tried these! A little bit of whining, but in just a week, she's off the baby bottles. We now have three in various designs, but may buy more! Easy to clean with a pipe-cleaner type of tool I got with another straw bottle. I like that it came with an extra straw set. I removed the strap given that we haven't traveled with the bottle yet, but I like that it's there. Good size that we can still warm up the milk in our bottle warmer (yes, she's picky some days...). Overall, a great find! If you're having similar struggles, maybe this bottle will be helpful and do the trick. :)

I love these water bottles for my girls. I purchased 6 different characters for my two daughters to share.What I love - each bottle comes with an extra straw assembly (2 pc.). I've owned many of these kids cups before with the straw inside and for some reason, the straws end up misplaced. Having an extra set is awesome. This is not only an extra straw that attaches inside the bottle, but there's also an extra exterior straw (the portion that is actually attached to the lid, which is what they drink out of.The designs are really cute and my girls really like them.Something to note. These are not leak free bottles. If you have smaller kids, let's say 2-3 years old and younger, these aren't the best. These are intended for kids who are able to remember to close the top when they are done drinking. If the top is left open and the water bottle ends up on its side or upside down, you will have a leak coming from the straw. With the lid closed, the straw becomes sealed off and reduced the chance of any liquid escaping. Not ideal for toddlers as they most likely aren't going to be aware enough to close the lid every time.Aside from that, these are great for kids 4-5 and up.

I actually like these quite a bit, we have 4 now for all over a year, 2+ on a couple of them. I recently decided to remove the strap, it's a nice idea but I think we used it 4 times in all, mostly it's annoying and finally when each one got so nasty looking no amount of cleaning helped I just took it off. Dur moment. The straws get to a point that they just really can't be sterilized any longer, no amount of scrubbing can remove the mold in the tiny spots. They haven't fallen apart or fallen out as some poster said, I can't even see how they could as you have to insert from the inside of the lid out. One did get bit off but that's kids for you! It is gets disgustingly filthy being 3 parts, too bad it can be a solid injection molded straw rather than the design. Which is why eventually you can't clean it all completely.But the lid... My pet peave. The underside way inside is a dishwashers nightmare. Nothing can clean it. The rubber seal gets gunky too. Eventually you will have to get a long stranded brush to get in deep, and remove the gasket often to clean it all thoroughly. I waited to long to pull it all apart one time, thinking the dishwasher and my straw cleaning brush were doing fine, then one day a long string of mold came lose from between the lid and straw. Barf!!!! So needless to say I remove all the pieces every time now. Pain in the a##. I ordered new straws and will do that until they are completely useless or break or I just cannot clean anymore because the kids do love them. They hold a good amount, are light weight, easy grip for small hands and always work. No drips when they're upright either but yeah they don't do well upside down shoved into the back of a carseat, ugh. I won't buy more but we have gotten a ton of life out of there ones we have.
