What age do you think a toddler can start using this cup?

My kid started using them right around her second birthday. I own three of these cups now, by the way, and have never had any trouble with them. Great product.

My Daughter started using them at about 14 mos. We have 6, her grandparents each have 1. Wouldn't buy another bottle, these are amazing.

The straw comes with all the safe sippy 2 cups but can be removed if not needed. My daughter is 19months and still doesn't use it so we're just saving it. The spout is hard on all the cups and can not be changed, it's part of the construction. I wouldn't recommend giving this cup to a 6 month old. Our daughter started using this cup at 10 months and by 11 months she was only using the cup. She caught on pretty quick so maybe just wait a bit, 6 months is kind of young for any cup.

I believe it's 18 months and up, but I guess it would be up to you and your child. My son is 21 months old and loves it, I don't think he would have been ready for something like this at 16 months.

Personally I think yes it would be too young for a 2 1/2 year old. My 11 month old gets bored with it. I'd say up to 1 1/2 maybe. That is just my personal opinion though.

I don't remeber what is on the brochure , but it is best for transition from bottle to cup. It fits slightly more than 5 ounces . I would say you can start it whenever recommended by your dr to transition to sippy cup like 6-7 month old

Our little grandson started using his at 5 months, but I think he is more interested in it and can sit up well enough at 6 months to really enjoy it. I would say that 6 months would be a good age (depending on the development of the child) to introduce this product.

VERY sturdy, 1 year is the perfect age to start using it. My 2.5 year old has used it from 12 mo until now and it's getting too small.

My son started using them around 10-11 months and still occasionally uses them now at 16 months. It was a nice transition from bottle nipple to sippy cup. Most of the sippy cups have the hard spout and my son couldn't pull the fluid out until he was over a year. Hope that helps.P.S. Be careful because while teething my son bit through the holes in the top and the bottles started leaking. We bought replacement nipples but he just did it again :)

My son learned to drink from the straw (he skipped the sippy feature all together) when he started solids at 6 months old. It took him a couple days, but he figured it out.

Maybe with an older child who is able to drink from a regular cup, but I wouldn't use them with liquids with a little one. It could get very messy very quickly! Haven't had a problem with my kiddo opening the seal at the bottom- I don't think he realizes it's there. He is 23 months.

My daughter has been using the seat since she was about 6 months old - and the way the seat adjusts - I'm assuming she will be able to use it until she is around 2 years of age. We take this seat with us everywhere - even to restaurants. She loves it!

I bought it for my granddaughter's 1st birthday. The child needs to be sitting up and steady, and able to hold on. I would say maybe starting at around 8 or 9 months. My granddaughter is almost 2, and she still loves it.

I would say 4 - 12 month olds. My son started at 4 months and loves it still at 8 months. Due to height restrictions it probably wouldn't fit any older than a 1 year old.

I think a younger child can use it if they are mature enough. Its a great cup to transition from a bottle since the spout is soft.

Thank you for your question. The 7 oz. Born Free Training Cup is recommended for age 6 months +.

It is as an excellent cup. My 10 month old is BF and bottle fed and he quickly started using it with my assistance. He holds it himself and can drink from it but can be a little messy without assistance since he is still developing his fine motor skills. I know all babies develop at different rates. For us it worked. I am really pleased with the cup. Hope that helps. Good luck.

As long as your nine month old has the ability to hold their cup by themselves and understands that he/she needs to suck in order to make the cup work, I would recommend it for sure!
