Product Information

Full details

The Doidy Cup - Pink is designed for babies and toddlers aged 3+ months, aiming to teach independent drinking from a rim, thereby avoiding potential issues associated with bottles and sippy cups. Its key benefit is the unique slanted design and two handles that allow children to see the contents and drink easily without excessive head tilting, promoting natural drinking habits. A caveat to consider is the warning against microwaving liquids for children due to the risk of hot spots. This BPA-free cup, made in the UK, supports early weaning and easy handling.

FAQs

What age is the Doidy Cup suitable for?

The Doidy Cup is suitable from 3+ months old. It can be used from birth with assistance from a caregiver.

How do I clean the Doidy Cup?

The Doidy Cup is dishwasher safe (top shelf). It can also be washed by hand with warm, soapy water and sterilized.

Is the Doidy Cup BPA-free?

Yes, the Doidy Cup is made from food-safe HD polyethylene, Plastic #2, and is Bisphenol FREE (BPA-free).

Can I microwave the Doidy Cup?

Yes, the cup is microwave safe. However, it is strongly advised to be cautious as microwaving liquids can create dangerous hot spots. Always stir and test the temperature thoroughly before giving it to a child.

What is the benefit of the slanted design?

The unique slant allows the child to see the contents easily without tilting their head too far down or forward, promoting a more natural drinking posture and reducing spills.

Does it come with a lid?

The Doidy Cup does not come with a separate lid, but it does include a resealable bag for travel and hygiene.

Where is the Doidy Cup made?

The Doidy Cup is designed and made in Scotland, U.K.

Troubleshooting

Cup seems too difficult for my baby to use initially.

Start with a very small amount of liquid in the cup to reduce weight and encourage easier tilting. Practice with water, which is lighter. You can also demonstrate drinking from the cup yourself.

My baby is spilling a lot of liquid.

Ensure your baby is holding the handles firmly. Try placing a small amount of liquid in the cup and guide their hands initially. The slanted design helps reduce spillage once mastered.

Concerns about microwaving the cup.

While the cup is microwave-safe, it's best to avoid microwaving liquids for children. If you must use the microwave, always stir thoroughly to eliminate hot spots and test the temperature carefully before serving.

Liquid feels too hot after microwaving.

This is a known risk of microwaving. Always test the liquid temperature rigorously. It is safer to warm liquids using a bottle warmer or a bowl of hot water and allow the cup to cool sufficiently.
