Green and Clean Mom: BPA FREE Sippy Cup Review

  • lamamanaturale · 1 year ago
    Hello there,
    We are currently using the Foogo's, Safe Sippy and Born! The Foogo straw and safe sippy are my son's favorite with organic carrot juice in them! :) If you get a chance, stop by my site as I too am hosting an Earth Day giveaway!! Thx.!!

    My daughter went straight from the bottle to the Nuby Sport Sipper. It seemed like kind of a cross between a bottle and sippy cup which seemed to calm her just before naptime and bedtime. It took us awhile to wean her off it. We also had problems with it leaking and it would take a couple of tries to get the lid on perfectly. Make sure the notches on the nipple type piece are matched up with the ring. That seemed to help us.

    We currently use the playtex sippy cup, but I am in the process of upgrading to "greener" options. We also have a Sigg bottle for each child, but they are not leak proof. My kids love to drink apple juice out of their sippy cups. I will post a link back to your giveaway on my blog. Thanks!!!

    We just started solids and are introducing water in a cup. We have a sippy from La Cie - and although adorable, is not safe. We need a bpa free sippy !

    We received two born free sippy cups as gifts, and they are great for my son to chew on, but at 9 months he has yet to figure out how to tip them up enough to actually get a drink. So, the Boon sounds like the sippy cup for us! Even if we don't win, I may have to invest in one in the near future! Thanks for the great reviews -- you were very detailed!

    My daughter uses the Avent Naturally "Magic" sippy cup. I hadn't thought about the sippy cup, so I was inspired to do some research by this post. It seems to be BPA free - so that's good. SHe drinks gallons of organic apple juice, and prefers the Knudsen brand that comes in those cool glass gallon bottles.

    We have a few Playtex sippy cups, but the two times I have given them to my son (7 months old) he hasn't actually "sipped" from them! I would love to get "greener" cups, and before he really uses them I plan on going to Babies R Us and trying out some new ones.


    Thanks for the giveaway! I love the looks of both of them, super cute!

    Now that's some GOOD hands-on sippy cup review. Removes all the doubts and returns. Count me in for this wonderful giveaway.


    We have ordinary run-of-the-mill sippy cups and my kid will drink anything liquid out of them. The featured ones made me drool, I can tell you that! :)



    I'll also be blogging it later tonight. I'm having giveaways on both my blogs. Hope you'll drop by and encourage your readers to do so as well!



    Thanks,

    My son uses a Nuby Sport Sipper. He actually did have some bpa-contaminated sippy cups that I had to toss. He likes to drink white grape juice, or milk with strawberry syrup in it. He asks for "pink milk".

    we have gerber and one loves water and the princess loves juice (current faves are apple, white cran or grapefruit)

    My 8-month-old son loves the Born Free Sippy. The handles make it easier for him to handle and when he gets tired of sipping, the handles are great for chewing on.
  • Feener · 1 year ago
    i am currently on a research hunt to find the perfect safe cup for my kids.
    we use the playtex and my girls love to drink WATER. Which I love, they are not juice hounds.



    see my most recent post at http://mommyvents.blogspot.com, it is all about finding a cup.



    I will be sure to linky to you and subscribe !!! I want to win !!!
  • Kristin · 1 year ago
    I love the thermos! It's truly wonderful. I did blog about teh contest although I am sure your karma is great ;)
  • LunaNik · 1 year ago
    My kids like the Gerber sippy's with the angled neck. They also like the Dora tall sippy's that come with a straw (I think the brand is Munchkins??)


    I would love to have BPA free sippy for my kiddos. Fingers crossed that I win!

    I found your website through The Soft Landing Blog. It's fabulous. My son is currently using the Nuby two handled cup. I'll put a link to your blog on mine www.littlemanblues.blogspot.com. Keep up the great work, it's awesome!

  • Preppy Mama · 1 year ago
    Hi there. We are currently using the Gerber fun grip color changing sippy cups. Is that bad? I am totally paranoid now. I never changed because my son is so fussy. I hope I get a chance to try a new cup. Thanks!
  • Michelle · 1 year ago
    Wow, I feel like such a bad mom. I just use the Gerber ones that were at Target that I saw other friends using (with slightly older children) that that swore didn't leak. I didn't even think about the plastic type. Apparently I need to rethink what I'm doing with her...


    Ok and what I'm doing in general as I drink out of a reusable plastic mug constantly myself.



    Great reviews, thanks -- I have a feeling I know what I'll be posting about tomorrow!

    We currently are using Nuby sippy cups...and my son love either apple juice or goats milk. :)
  • Rachel · 1 year ago
    I would love to try these! We currently use the born free training cups and some various nuby sippies/straw cups. I really don't care for the born free cups to be honest! They're expensive and my kids chew the nipple-like parts and destroy them. The nuby straw cups are actually pretty good, though a pain to drink out of because they have to more or less bite down on the straw while sipping.


    My kids like to drink water, soy milk and vruit!

    We use the Nuby sippy cups...and they LEAK! I've got to figure something else out. We put anything and everything in them: juice, milk, chocolate milk, water, etc.

    My kiddos drink from Playtex and a Nuby sippy cup... But I would love to try the BPA free ones! I never realized the dangers until I started reading your blog!
    They mostly drink milk or apple juice in them.

    I gave you some juice by Digging this post and I will also be blogging about it later at my Monkey Baby blog as well...

    My son is just starting to try out his Gerber sippy cup, but I've been looking like crazy for a quality, BPA free option. Right now, I just put water in it, though I'm not sure he's had any success getting any out!

    Moms, there are all these posts and I'm trying to visit ALL of your blogs but I just can't to all of them tonight. I just wanted you to all know, I read everything and try to get to each blog at some point and leave some comment. I do. I really do. It's hard as the traffic grows. I'm a one mama show but I try.


    Quickly, some of you have made comments about feeling bad or being a bad mommy. NO!!! You do your best and it is hard. Just learn, make some changes and do your best. This isn't meant to make you feel bad but raise awarness and make you think, plus a giveaway!!! Keep loving and trying moms!
  • Gina · 1 year ago
    Right now we're just using some generic walmart cheapo sippys. Prolly the bad ones. My youngest who is the only one who uses a sippy anymore, her favorite is milk!


    Thanks for the giveaway.
  • Jasper · 1 year ago
    My son LOVES the Foogo straw cup and the Nuby Grip and Sip straw cup and drinks milk, water and diluted juice from them. Thanks for the giveaway!
  • Wendi · 1 year ago
    I scoured the internet to find a retailer who actually had the Safe Sippy in stock because I had read a few positive reviews. It came this week and we've been using it, but i'm sorry to say that it's a drippy cup. The spout doesn't drip, but the neck does - seems that the threads don't align properly. We also use the Avent Magic cup. It's BPA free and doesn't leak.
  • Lisa, Cory, Ava · 1 year ago
    My daughter has been breastfed, is now 8 months old, and has been taking water only from the playtex first sipster sippy cup. She absolutely refuses a bottle, so sippy cups are my only option. I am trying to wean her off the breast as I have to go back to work, so I could definitely use some additional cups! She also uses the Avent magic cup, which is apparently safe.
  • Sophia · 1 year ago
    We are just about to order some cups to try for my 6 month old son. We had a cup that we have now heard is not so safe! I have made a promise now, to my son, to become a green Mommy! I am in the midst of suppy cup research right now. We had some of the unsafe Nuby cups also...
    thank you so very much for your blog. If it were not for you, and other blogging moms, I might not have all of this great info.

    We are heading to the linked site to order, so thank you for that also!



    Just in case I am the lucky winner-

    What a day to find this wonderful place, but on Earth Day!
    Three degrees of separation got me here. I got an email talking about playtime and in that email was a link to another article, in that article was a link to another article and then finally, this blog! We are currently using the Avent Naturally bottle/sipper transitional piece. Sadly, naturally only means in shape. I am looking to switch my 17 month old to BPA FREE and am so glad I found this. Even if we don't win, I just want to thank you for your feedback on these sippy cups and encourage more people to refer your blogs. There are more people out there who just don't know about this stuff, like myself.

    We're using Foogo by Thermos. I like it. It's not too babyish so it's good for older toddlers and it cleans well.
  • Wendy · 1 year ago
    ack! we use gerbers! it's her fav cause it's all she's got. but not for long. thanks so much for this post!
  • Mama Luxe · 1 year ago
    We currently use the SIGG, but I'd love to compare it to some of the other sippies out there. Would absolutely love to win!!!

    I got rid of any questionable sippy cups, and now we use the Kleen Kanteen. It's stainless steel, easy to clean and keeps drink cold, however, it does leak!


    I will go now to link your giveway back to my blog! Thanks for taking the time to review these and sharing your results.

    for my son we used nuby's because we started at 5 months and it was the easiest transition from a bottle now my daughter is a couple months away from a sippy cup and my thoughts now are a klean kanteen with sippy attachment she still uses glass bottles
  • LaurieJo · 1 year ago
    Thanks for the post! I'm currently searching for new sippy cups. My daughter prefers the soft straw kind, so the traditional sippy cup never works well for us. I am going to try out the Foogoo straw one that your kids loved to use and hated to share!
  • Heather · 1 year ago
    We use the Foogo straw in lunch boxes. The top straw is usually missing when it comes home and I have to go to their website for replacements. Other than that they are great.

    BPA isn't dangerous, especially not for sippy cups in which you serve cold water. Read the article. Don't let the media, or word of mouth scare you. Get the facts: http://tinyurl.com/5dmyn6
