I had so much trouble getting my daughter to drink from a cup instead of a bottle, she just wanted her bottle and would scream to high heaven if given some thing else...
...That is until I discovered the sippy spouts that would fit in the same top as her bottle! She took to that like a duck to water...
...Then I found the magic cup, I used the same spouts that I already had and she was more than happy to drink from it.
The spouts come in 2 different colours white for children 3+ months and green for children 6+ months old. You can also get handles that fit over the neck of the cup and then are held in place by the screw top.
The spouts come in twin packs and you can get them from almost anywhere that sells these kind of things. I've bought them from Big W and Mothercare (though for some reason they don't have them on the Mothercare website you obviously have to go into the shop to buy them)
The Magic cup itself can also be bought from the same places, it comes with a spout and holds 260ml.
The cup and accesseries can be sterilised in the microwave and the spouts come apart to clean and are easy to clean, saying that though you do need a cotton bud to clean inside the spout.
The cup itself is incredibly strong and tough, my daughter loves throwing hers about and has even thrown it out of the back door in to the garden!
These prices depend on where you buy them, it's worth shopping around for them.
I think these are a brillient idea, and although they can work out expensive I feel they are well worth the money...especially when they are being used as teething rings...as my daughter did!!
I have had to change the spouts on several occations, it's cheaper to change the spout rather than have to buy a whole new cup.

We have one of these in the cupboard, my grandaughter drank from it for a while but then I gave her an ordinary cup and that was the end of that, apart from a few spills, I didn't regret it, these are useful though aren't they? Good review, Sue
