Product Information

Full details

The Doidy Cup - Blue is designed for babies aged 3+ months to learn independent drinking from a rim, promoting natural feeding reflexes and speech development. Its key benefit is the unique sloped design that allows babies to see the liquid and drink without excessive head tilting, aiding in proper cup usage and avoiding common issues with bottles or sippy cups. A potential caveat is the microwaving warning, where liquids can develop hot spots.

Ensure the baby is in an upright position. Demonstrate how to hold and tip the cup. Start with small amounts of liquid. Use the included weaning guide for tips.

Liquid spills frequently.

This is part of the learning process. Ensure the baby is holding the handles firmly. Reduce the amount of liquid in the cup initially. Practice over a sink or in a high chair.
