They had to go straight to open cups, but small kid-sized ones. <BR/><BR/>Good luck to you guys! I hope she discovers the joy of finger foods soon, too! And the molars are a nightmare.caramamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02327695885346537321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29235839.post-2658980779679739912008-05-21T08:47:00.000-07:002008-05-21T08:47:00.000-07:00Yeah, The First Years "Take and Toss" cups are Pum...Yeah, The First Years "Take and Toss" cups are Pumpkin's favorite for water. If we give her milk in one, though, she throws it across the room.

I then gave the whole selection to a friend, telling her to try them all before going out and buying some for herself.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29235839.post-25043383703012474762008-05-21T07:35:00.000-07:002008-05-21T07:35:00.000-07:00My daughter did that, too.

No wonder babies get frustrated with them.<BR/><BR/>We had the best luck with "the First Years" cups with the one piece lids. No little parts, easy to clean, leak-resistant (but not leak-proof), but easy to sip from. Kids don't upend them because they don't get frustrated.<BR/><BR/>Her daycare center used the same one. Learn from those more experienced than you.<BR/><BR/>Be sure to get the reusable ones made of thicker plastic instead of the new flimsy ones.badmomgoodmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11569728075698885020noreply@blogger.com
