Using Tongue - Straw Drinking

My 16 month old is now drinking from a straw, but I noticed she's curling her tongue under the straw- using her tongue rather than simply putting her lips around the straw. How can I prevent her from doing this and/or help her figure it out? Today was day 1.. Not sure if she'll naturally stop doing this or not?

She'll get the hang of it. It's only the first day.

She'll most likely learn to reposition it. I would keep an eye on it and see.
