EZPZ Mini Cup + Straw

The straw has a nice resistance that helps my 9-month-old pace himself, and the cup is perfectly sized for little hands to hold on their own. It took about a week of practice, but now he drinks water happily without me having to tilt it for him.

My 18-month-old finally figured out the straw on the third try, and I love that the cup is weighted so it doesn't tip over. The soft silicone straw is gentle on her gums, making practice much less fussy.

My little one picked up straw drinking in just a few days with this set, and the silicone cup feels sturdy enough to survive drops. The only reason I'm not giving five stars is that the straw can be a bit tricky to clean completely after thicker smoothies.
