The Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature line of baby bottles has been chosen as Great Britain’s best baby bottle by The Mother and Baby Gold Awards."
As a mom of three (soon to be 4!), and a former nanny, I have tried many, many brands of bottles and sippy cups throughout the years. Most are adequate, some very good, but many so called leak-proof cups either leak when put up the the toddler chewing, dropping, shaking, throwing test; or, are simply a pain in the rear to disassemble & clean.
I was sent a set of the Tommee Tippee Explora Sippy Cups to test. Here's my take on them:
These cups are not only cute, but they perform well and are easy to use. Hooray for a product that delivers as promised! Both my 2 year old and 5 year old tested them out. (Yes, my 5 year old is a little mature for a sippy cup but I indulged her for a while). The cups hold 12 ounces of liquid, plenty for a thirsty, active toddler. They are easy to grip with a rubbery outer ribbing, but easily fit in a cup holder. They are a cinch to snap apart, plop in the dishwasher, and snap back together. They don't leak and they have an attached spout cover to help keep out the germs. I think they are just dandy for making any hardworking, busy mommy's life a little easier. Microwave, dishwasher and freezer-safe, plus BPA- and Phthalate-free. They definitely get two thumbs up from me!
More specifics about the cups I tested:
Recommended ages: 6 months+
Sippy Cups:
Designed to take children from first sips to grown-up drinking by easing transitions along the way.
Advance-flo™ valve created by a physicist requires same amount of suction as a bottle or breast – easy drinking = easier transition.
Spill- and leak-proof.
Progressively staged with a specific grip and spout for every age and stage.
I plan to get plenty of miles out of these cups and can't wait to try the Tommee Tippee Closer To Nature bottles and pacifiers with our newest addition.
