[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Feels babyish.

We did sippy cup for age 1. Straw cup for age 2 with open cup practice. By 3, mostly open cup with spills, plus water thermos. [/quote]

You mean those munchkin type sippy? Anyway, if your daughter is fine with kiddish and grandma insist. I will just let it go. Not worth the fight in exchange of baby sitting.

If your kid chews that thing and will have a bad bite or some other issue, then it’s a different story. But since she is not a chewer etc, I can’t see any physical harm from drinking off this sippy except for the childish factor. I am sure by tween, this problem will go away.

What water bottle does she use at school? Does it have a sport spout and does she have any issue with it because of confusion using it at  grandmas?

My own kids had a problem with straw chewing because my parents love giving my kids those camelbak bite valve bottles. So they kinda love chewing on their water bottles straws or sport spouts eg. On a hyper fuel Nike that my daughter’s sports club gives. And she bites hard on them leaving lost of marks when it is not necessary to chew to drink. We can’t replace because it’s a team all requiring to use the same water bottle kinda thing. [/quote]
