Plum Silicone Sippy Cup - Sand

Ideal for little ones learning to drink from a cup with the natural hold-and-tilt motion, the Plum Silicone Sippy Cup - Sand is a gentle step between bottles, sippy cups and open cups. A soft, food grade silicone cup, lid and spout are designed to be kind on gums while still providing enough structure for confident gripping and sipping. Perfectly sized handles on the cup support little hands to grasp securely, boosting confidence and independence as children learn to manage their own drinks. With a 150ml capacity, it's just the right size for water, milk or cooled herbal teas at mealtimes or throughout the day. Co-ordinating tableware is available separately, making it easy to create a cohesive, child-friendly place setting. Made from food grade silicone with no added BPA or phthalates, this cup supports safe, everyday use at home, in early learning settings or on the go. Practical as well as child-centred, it is dishwasher safe (top rack only) and microwave safe (with the lid left ajar), helping busy adults manage preparation and clean up with ease. Before first use, simply disassemble, wash, and gently squeeze the spout to open the pre-cut slit for easier sipping. The thoughtful design helps toddlers practise the tilt action they'll need for open cups, without the spills that can undermine their confidence, supporting a calm, positive transition to independent drinking.

Educational Benefits:

• Encourages the development of early self-help skills and independence as children learn to hold, tilt and sip from their own cup.
• Supports fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination through grasping the handles, lifting the cup and controlling the flow of liquid.
• Promotes oral motor development by gently challenging children to sip through a soft spout rather than a bottle teat.
• Helps build positive mealtime routines and confidence, reducing spills so children can focus on enjoying drinks and social interaction.

Classroom & Home Ideas:

• Use as a first training cup in baby and toddler rooms or at home once children are developmentally ready to move on from bottles.
• Pair with co-ordinating tableware and child-sized cutlery to create inviting, consistent mealtime set-ups that support routine and independence.
• Incorporate into practical life activities, such as helping to set the table, fill cups with water (with support) and carry them carefully to seats.
• Use during small group snack times to encourage social skills, turn-taking in pouring (with adult support) and simple conversations about healthy drinking habits.
