The First Years by TOMY Weighted Straw Trainer helps your little one learn to sip from a straw. The weighted end of the silicone straw stays with the liquid so your child can sip from any angle, with no drop left behind. Get-a-Grip handles make it easier for younger babies to learn and give toddlers a handy way to carry the cup. The spill-proof design includes a flip-top cover over the straw that keeps the drink in the cup and protects the straw from dirt and germs. The cup is top-rack dishwasher safe and made without BPA, with an age grade of 6 months and up.
