  • Publication number: 20230096806
    Abstract: A developmental drinking cup and training straw and method for developmental drinking stages is presented. A first stage presents an open-topped tiny cup, having a small volume, whereby a toddler's eye-hand and hand-to-mouth coordination is promoted while encouraging head-forward drinking which lessens choking and reinforces a strong swallow reflex. Once mastery of the initial stage is attained, an open-topped mini cup is presented, having twice the capacity of the tiny cup, to reinforce the developmental drinking promoted in the initial stage. A third and fourth stage present the mini cup in use with a training straw which inverts to present a second end after use with the first end has been mastered. Eye-hand and hand-to-mouth coordination and head-forward drinking is developed while generating confidence with independent drinking without sippy cups or spouted vessels which are known to impact speech development.
