Product Information

Full details

The Doidy Cup is designed for babies aged 3+ months (or from birth with adult help) to learn to drink from a rim, promoting natural feeding habits and avoiding issues associated with bottles or sippy cups. Its unique slanted design allows children to see the liquid and drink easily without tilting their heads back excessively, aiding in the development of jaw, speech, and motor skills. A potential caveat is that microwaving liquids is not advised due to hot spots, even though the cup itself is microwave safe. Key features include its ergonomic two-handled design for easy grip, visibility of contents, and a resealable bag for travel.

Troubleshooting

Baby is spilling a lot of liquid.

This is common during the learning phase. Ensure the baby is holding the cup with both hands and encourage them to take small sips. The unique slant helps, but practice is key. You can start with a smaller amount of liquid to minimize mess.

Baby is hesitant to use the cup.

Offer the cup during meal times when the baby is naturally inclined to try new things. You can demonstrate drinking from the cup yourself. If using for the first time, ensure it's filled with a familiar liquid like water or milk.

Cup seems difficult to clean.

The Doidy Cup is dishwasher safe on the top shelf. For manual cleaning, use warm soapy water and a bottle brush if needed. Ensure all residues are removed before sterilizing or next use.
