Moving from Sippy cup to real cup
« on: January 26, 2007, 04:32:16 am »
Hi,

My lo is 22 months and I'm starting to think about moving her from a sippy cup (which she drinks from all thet time) to a real cup. Does anyone have suggestions?

Thanks!

Has she ever tried to drink from a real cup?  Really it just takes practice and dont fill the cup too full cause you need to be prepared to clean up however much is in the cup :P

Having seen other adults give her a FULL glass of water in a huge glass and seeing the mess on their carpet (hehe), I definately recommend getting a kids size cup/glass, and only put an inch deep of water in it. 
Our little one has just gotten to the stage where she doesn't spill from a kids glass! So cute to see them growing up!
