What sippy cup should I use for my 1-year-old?

When choosing a sippy cup for a 1-year-old, there are a few key things to keep in mind:
Material: Choose BPA-free, food-grade silicone or Tritan (plastic).
Spout type: For 1-year-olds, soft silicone spout cups are ideal. Hard spouts can damage gums and new teeth. 360-degree spill-proof cups are also a good alternative.
Capacity: About 200–250 ml is ideal — portable and holds roughly one feeding's worth of liquid.
Leak-proof and easy to clean: Choose a model where all parts can be completely disassembled (inner piece, seal, cap) and are suitable for sterilization — this matters for hygiene.
Drop-proof/durability: Babies drop sippy cups constantly; choose unbreakable, impact-resistant materials.
A soft-spout, completely-disassembled, BPA-free spill-proof cup meeting these criteria will work well for your 1-year-old. It may take a few tries for the baby to adjust to it; you can help by gently expressing some water to show how it flows.
