This might be an embarrassing post. Whether I mean embarrassing for myself or my children, I’m not sure. Maybe both?
All I know is that I have to admit that I found the perfect sippy cup transition from baby to toddler. And it’s such an amazing cup that it is still my boys’ go-to for chocolate milk over eight years later.
Which magic cup have my kids been using for over eight years, you ask? The Playtex Baby Sipsters Hard Spout Sippy Cup. It is honestly the ONLY cup I’ve found that does not leak. Let me say that one more time, so it really sinks in. It is the one cup I’ve found that no matter its position, DOES NOT LEAK.
My guess is that’s because of the rubber valve that is used in the lid. Even after many drops and cycles through the dishwasher, these sippy cups are still going strong on their leak proof value proposition.
My kids like to drink chocolate milk in the morning while they wake up. They chill on the couch, snuggled in blankets, and slowly wake up for the day with chocolate milk in hand.
In order for me to not force them to sit at the table while they relax, I’ve continued to provide their chocolate milk in the Playtex Sippy Cup.
Is it a little childish for my almost nine and seven year olds? Maybe. But do I get to not worry about dealing with another thing in the morning, namely a huge gross spill that will ruin my day? Definitely. I consider that a win!
Sometimes my boys leave their cups on the couch after they are done, but before they make the trek to the fridge to put it away. Thankfully, that is not a problem. The cups can toss and turn, lay on the couch, be thrown around, drop to the ground and they still refuse to leak. It’s honestly amazing.
Even though the sippy cups are only used for chocolate milk, it has been so worth it keeping them for this long. Should I probably let them go? Maybe. But will it be hard to say goodbye to these amazing products that have proven to last this long? Absolutely.
