How to Find Safer Sippy Cups
Concerned parents wanting to decrease their childrens' use of toxic plastic are faced with never ending shelves of sippy cups made with unknown materials.
Surely you can just turn the box over and read the label to find out what the sippy cup is made of, right? If only it were that easy! Manufacturers are not required to label their products, so that leaves parents wondering what to do next.
Hopefully I can help . . .

My daughter will only drink from a straw and BPA-free straw sippy cups are few and far between. The Nuby is OK but it leaks a lot. Her favorite, though not exactly a sippy cup, is the new BPA-free Camelbak Better Bottle with Bite Valve. She is able to work the bite valve with no problem and likes it more than any cup we've tried...

Great page. I love the dads thing! Nuby sippy cups are my family's favorite and they have plenty of BPA free cups. I built a lens specifically about the BPA free Nuby sippy cups too. Parents really should give them a try. Thanks!
