I foundy my holy grail!
By Nutmeg101 onThose of you with toddlers understand the "quest for the perfect sippy cup."I found mine today!The Nalgene Toddler Grip-n-Gulp is a BPA free, leak proof, cute, easy to clean, sippy cup!The translucent bottle holds 12 ounces.The size and shape make it perfect for little hands to hold onto.There is a loop at the top, which I have already found is useful for when all hands are full, usually you can spare a finger to hang the bottle!All parts are safe to run through the dishwasher. While i love all of these features, being able to get a BPA free cup for under $10 made my day!
The information packet does warn not to use this product in the microwave. Don't boil it.It is not recommend for juices with pulp or anything carbonated.It does warn that if held upside down it may leak, however, I tested this.I actually filled it, held it upside down and shook it, HARD.Not a drop.
They are offered in a variety of colors. Since these were such a bargain, I stocked up on a few as christmas gifts for friends with toddlers!

This looks similar to my big water bottle. I love the flip up part to drink from. I had a straw come with mine but it makes too much noise when you use it. Some flaw in the design I guess. I really like the handle part on mine too. We took ours to Disney and it was so convenient to be able to hang on to it with just one finger instead of your whole hand. Cute.....I wonder if I can find this one for my grandson...he thinks my bottle is his !

The Nalgene Grip n Gulp sippy cup is truly a winner for being easy to fill, durable, and easy for children to drink from. There are 4 colors to choose from; pink, green, blue, and purple.
