Do the 360 cups work for toddlers when lying down?

Anonymous
Anyone know? There’s the Tommee Tippee and Munchkin versions. The 360 degree cups.

Are you asking if they can drink from them lying down? Yes, they can, but not a good practice for kids to drink while lying down.

No, I would 100% not recommend them for laying down. The kid would choke on the liquid and their bed would be soaked. Once they bite down it’s basically like an open cup. (I threw ours away because my dd enjoyed biting down and letting the entire cup drain on her.)

What did you use after you threw it out? I'm having the same issue with my DS.

After trying a million sippy cups and finding them all to leak or be obnoxious to clean we just use the Take and Toss cups. I get the 3 pack at Target for like $1.99 and it lasts us a few months (which is about as long as every $8-$12 sippy lasted) and I feel no guilt losing them or tossing them. Also they work without the lid too so they’re great for practice. My dd brings a cup of ice water (if she can’t hear the ice clink I get sent back to the kitchen for more ) to nap and bed in these cups and at most I’ve seen a quarter size drip if she leaves it upside down.

We use these straw cups for on the go but they don’t work laying down:

My now 4 yo has had a 360 cup (I think the munchkin one) in her crib/bed with her at night for at least 2 years. She spilled it on purpose a couple of times last year and I told her no more water in bed if she does it again. For us it’s beef great and we never have to worry about being bothered at night because she’s thirsty. A million other things, yes, but not that one!
