Playtex Wins The Sippy Cup Fight

I am a sippy cup snob. How many times do you buy a new sippy cup and you get the let down of the plug coming out and the liquid inside pouring all over your favorite sofa, or kid for that matter. Yeah that has happened to me about 12,456 times, and then I learned not to buy the other brands.

My full disclosure is YES Playtex has sent me a FREE sippy cup, but they truth is they already earned my loyalty long before. Luckily all of there cups have a plug that is so secure and snug, it rarely comes out of place.

Playtex offered me The First Lil' Gripper Straw Trainer Cup to check out:

I thought this cup would be to young for Addison, but when I received it I realized it was perfect. She has been wanting a straw after ogling her brother using one. This gave me the option to give her a straw with a completely covered top that was leak proof. It also has the handles on the side which she loves and prefers. I also loved that it had a flip top that easily avoided getting dirty when inside a baby bag. I also adore on most of their cups, that they have the twist n' click tops to ensure the top is on completely.

I am sure this cup would have been great to transition off of a bottle to a cup. It also seems to be a great way to teach a child how to use a straw as it has a place for an adult to squeeze so that the the liquid will travel up the straw.

Besides giving this cup a big thumbs up, I also want to say these two are also on my favorites list:

This insulator cup keeps drinks so cold that ice is still present hours later:
And this cup is a HUGE MEGA PUFFY HEART LOVE. This is the Coolster cup that not only insulates like the one above but also looks like a coffee mug. I love this because my son who is almost five, can use it and not look like a two year old with a sippy cup.


I would like to thank Playtex for the generous gift, but really, I have to tell you, you had me a leak-proof.
