The Nuby sippy cup is worth our time and attention and membership at The Perfect Cup since it has many vital characteristics and benefits that are vital to concerned parents – without paying a lot (as we don’t believe in handing over a lot of cash for anything that is in use for a few months)!
Firstly, the best bpa-free cups are easy for a young child to hold, and this Nuby one certainly is. No other feature matters more. A young child should be able to easily feel at ease with the sippy cup. This seems rather obvious, but lots of bpa free cups on the market, even the cups without BPA which seem to often get a lot more thought and creativity put into their design, omit this important aspect. Little, still developing hands must be able to easily flip it around and over without dropping the bpa-free sippy.
Not only is this about performance, it is developmental too – you want your preschooler to be encouraged when using the bpa-free sippy, not frustrated by it.
Next, a smart toddler sippy, in particular one without BPA, has to be easy for a caretaker to clean. Again, this Nuby bpa-free sippy cup surpasses that bar. It does not have an excess of pieces, and it can easily be taken apart and put back together. I personally prefer cups that can go in the dishwasher, but will purchase one occasionally that must be handwashed if it looks good. That is a decision you will have to make. You may simply not have the time to purchase sippy cups that are not dishwasher safe. Regardless, this sippy cup has only a few components and is easy to wash, both vital characteristics of any sippy cup.
Finally, this Nuby bpa-free sippy cup possesses, as all ideal sippy cups should, a bpa-free label! The complete story on the the long-term implications of BPA probably will not be clear for a good while, but in the interim, it is worth buying those cups that are certified to be BPA free. The difference in cost is minimal, and the potential impact on your preschooler is – potentially – quite huge!
