Help! My daughter has learned the finer art of using her sippy cup as an indoor milk sprinkler. Every time I turn around, she's spreading it over her carseat, her legs, her clothes, the couch, the floor, etc. etc.She's still pretty young, so the harder spout sippy cups are a bit much for her to handle. And I hear that the straw sippy cups require one to be able to bite and suck at the same time. Is that true with all of them?
Anyone have any suggestions of sippy cups that really are leak proof?

We just had to teach Lexi to hold it up and she got in trouble when she spilled it out on purpose. Now we have occational accidental spills from the sippy cup, but not so many of the on purpose ones. Good luck!
We have used the straw sippers since about 11 months old for that very same reason. I have actually tried them to see how they work and I didnt bite the straw, however Cady just naturally started biting it when she was sucking. It might be something that Andie will just catch onto in order to get a drink but I dont really think its something you need to do in order for them to work! I hope this helps, the straw cups are pretty much all we use now and there is minimal spilling.
The only sippy cups I've found that don't leak are the Playtex brand ones. I've had most of my Playtex cups for 3 years and they still don't leak. They do have a hard spout, but I bet she'd get used to it pretty quickly. I think every other brand I've tried has leaked at some point.
Well, now I did use a Gerber cup that had a softer spout that did pretty well at not leaking. Eventually the part where the valve fit in broke, but it did okay until then.
Thanks, everyone. I've got a lot of ideas to keep in mind. I really appreciate your help!
