Toddler Tip: The Value of a Bendy Straw

Jun 8, 2011 by desiringvirtue

Packing a sippy cup every time you go out can be a bother especially when you have another littler little who needs you to pack his bottle at all times. Recently we have been forgoing the sippy cup all together and simply asking for a lidded children’s cup of water when we are eating out at restaurants. While our toddler can hold these cups just fine he often needs help keeping them upright as he tries to navigate the long straw. The solution? Simply pack some bendy straws in your diaper bag to avoid unnesessary spills and keep your diaper bag’s weight to a minimum.

Reader’s Tip: Dalila suggests using a travel toothbrush holder to keep them clean and unbroken.
