Product Information

Full details

The Liewood Neil silicone training cup is designed for babies aged 6 months and older, aiding them in mastering the skill of drinking independently. Its key benefit is promoting grip and tilting practice, preparing children for open cup usage, with a potential caveat being the learning curve for some infants with the spout. This cup features a removable lid with a spout, tactile handles for a secure grip, and is made from 100% shatterproof silicone.

Troubleshooting

Cup lid is difficult to remove or attach

Ensure the cup and lid are completely dry. Sometimes, a slight twist while pulling can help detach a tight lid. Check for any debris around the rim or spout.

Child is hesitant to drink from the spout

Allow your child to explore the cup without pressure. You can demonstrate how to tilt it. If they continue to struggle, consider using it without the lid for a short period to familiarize them with the cup's shape and handles.

Discoloration on the silicone

While generally resistant, some highly pigmented foods (like tomato sauce or berries) can cause temporary staining. Try soaking the affected area in a mild bleach solution or baking soda paste, followed by thorough rinsing. Regular dishwasher cycles usually prevent significant staining.
