Sippy Cup

Some kids just don't like them.

I don't think you can make him. Try showing him how to use it and put his favorite drink in there. Good luck!

I just made the sippy cup available to my boys whatever they were doing - had it with them pretty much in their reach wherever they were. They eventually got the idea. I would show them by drinking from one...I would put theirs up to their mouth. It did take a while...they were breast fed for 14 months and would not take the bottle. So it was foreign to them...but they got it.

What does he drink from now, a bottle? Some kids differentiate between milk and other drinks and won't take milk in a sippy but will take water or juice from one.

Hello,

My sister did with her son. She took the bottle completely away at 18 months. However, she eased him into it. She would give him a sippy cup for bedtime and naps, and even if he screamed b/c he wanted the bottle, she didn't give in. Eventually he drank from it at nap and bedtime and she was able to switch him completely to the sippy cup.

Thanks a lot!
