Our son is about to be 3 and is doing well with spill proof straw cups by Tommee Tippee but they're expensive and the silicone parts wear out and I hope to be done with them some day, you know? I'm still not in a huge rush, but maybe we can try the reflo cup - he might surprise us. Grats on making that mile stone - that's so exciting! =DKathrynVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08825064639827755983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2864394486854097024.post-58540785127075597252013-05-21T19:52:05.910-05:002013-05-21T19:52:05.910-05:00We have a reflo cup and my three-year-old can'...We have a <a href="https://www.sweetbottomsbaby.com/Reflo_bymfg_146-3-1.html" rel="nofollow">reflo</a> cup and my three-year-old can't get enough of it, because she wants to be a big girl. It hasn't cracked yet, even after being dropped, so maybe we just got lucky.

My little man (who is 8 - almost 9) is visually impaired. We experience spilled cups frequently, especially since he wants to use the same items we do. Sports bottles work for us since they're appropriate for all ages. I like the options you found. <br /><br />Just a little note. When I checked out the Reflo cup ad (thinking it may be an option for us - and it still may be), the one thing that concerned me is that the reviews said it is easily cracked if it is dropped. The manufacturer confirmed this. It may cause some to reconsider spending their money on an item that is not sturdy enough to withstand the "love" from our special kiddos. I don't mean any disrespect Lana, I just wanted to share that. Forgive me if I'm out of line.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09936453443542502381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2864394486854097024.post-2658477265040486602013-05-08T16:02:23.020-05:002013-05-08T16:02:23.020-05:00Gosh, Lily is really getting to be such a young la...Gosh, Lily is really getting to be such a young lady! Toots drinks from those cold Thermos cups with the lids that have the built in straws and ZooPals covered cups with straws. He's not as talented as Lily with the open cup. We still have a lot of spills, not with the drinking but just when we lull ourselves into a sense of everything being okay, he knocks over the cup... that's why Bounty is too expensive for us. I go for the Costco brand! ;)Karen V.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02432239210579792788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2864394486854097024.post-1651454518495176222013-05-08T14:14:13.787-05:002013-05-08T14:14:13.787-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2864394486854097024.post-51970511985129499202013-05-05T08:28:34.462-05:002013-05-05T08:28:34.462-05:00I remember when Luke was still in ECSE and would u...I remember when Luke was still in ECSE and would use different methods to drink everywhere - home, school, daycare. The end result was that we all thought he needed to work on different methods (cup, drinking fountain, straw) until we realized what was going on. The best we could come up with was that he must have thought that certain methods belonged in certain places. Or that at 4 he was smart enough to try to fool us!Janetnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2864394486854097024.post-24378663859689553722013-05-04T10:36:26.405-05:002013-05-04T10:36:26.405-05:00Well done Lily... she IS hot!

He does good at school, but like you, we don't love the idea of more seemingly unnecessary clean-ups. This is the perfect compromise!<br />--Candace RAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2864394486854097024.post-52396208184797195572013-05-03T12:10:15.059-05:002013-05-03T12:10:15.059-05:00AMEN!!

These cups would be great for any 1-3 year old as well!
