Straw sippy cup recommendations?

What type of straw sippy does your LO use? My granddaughter has the Munchkin flip top straw cup but it seems a little hard for her to suck thru it. Is there one that the liquid flows more freely through? What about the Tommee Tippee Flip top sippee cup?

Re: Straw sippy cup recommendations?

we have the tommee tippee straw cup and LOVE it.

its a little hard to put back together after cleaning, but it doesnt leak if put back together correctly and very easy to sip through.

my ds has been using it since 12 months no problem.

I actually use (and re-use) the Take and Toss ones. Just be careful not to fill them up too close to the top or when you put the top and straw on, you get a mini geyser.

Definitely Tommee Tippee. The Playtex ones were really hard to suck from. TT also has a straw cup where you have to hold up the cup.

DS only took to the playtex ones. We tried munchkin, nuby, tommy tippie and babies r us brand and he didn't like any of them.

They are easy to take apart and clean too!!

This is what we started with at 7 months. DD picked it up right away (she didn't understand the spout ones at that point). Then we moved to bigger Playtex straw cups. The only thing I hate is that she can't get the milk at the bottom of the cup. I just tried TT straw cup. The straw is a little longer, but there's still milk left over in the bottom that she can't get to.

Ditto on the playtex cup. If your DC has trouble with that you can try a Sip-tip cup.

You can buy longer replacement straws on Amazon for the playtex cups to get to the bottom of the clear cup. I've also found that the insulated ones DS can get all but one little drip of milk because the straw is long enough.
