My son is at the age where he is supposed to start learning how to use a cup and I have to say, it has been a struggle. After several sippy cups and some very wet floors (and a very wet baby), I got the Philips AVENT Natural Drinking Cup to test out. Immediately it scored major “Dad Points;” when Chase’s father looked at it for the first time he said, “That is very cool, let’s try it right now!”

So we did and I had to agree, it’s a very genius idea indeed. The first thing to note is the innovative 360° drinking, which I love for my baby especially. Chase tends to think he can drink from any side of his cups or bottles and he gets frustrated when he tries to drink from a random point on the cup and nothing comes out. Now, as long as his Philips AVENT Natural Drinking Cup is facing upright, he can get a drink.

The top is designed with a valve that only allows liquid to escape at the point where it is being pushed down with your baby’s lip, which means the only water that comes out goes straight into your toddler’s mouth.
