We were super excited to try out the Deluxe Bottle Brush and the Mighty Grip® Flip Straw Cup. I know what you're thinking-- you're excited about a bottle brush? Well yes! Our first bottle brush we had ended up snapping in half, um not good and the second one the bristles flattened and was useless shortly after starting to use it.
The Deluxe Bottle Brush stands upright with a strong suction base. The unique textured scrubber reaches hard-to-clean areas where germs like to hide and inside the handle is a nipple brush, so it’s always close at hand. You can suction it to the bottom of the sink or counter for one-handed cleaning and germ-free drying.
The brush is just awesome. It cleans bottles quickly and effectively and shows no signs of breaking or faltering anytime soon. Anyone with a baby knows that sometimes you have to wash a bottle while holding a baby so the one-handed cleaning the suction cup allows is perfect. It is a slight annoyance to unscrew the nipple brush from the handle, but it's not difficult to do nor does it take long. I'd rather have the suction cup than the nipple brush on the other end.
The Mighty Grip® 10 oz. Flip Straw Cup has a contoured shape a lever that flips up to put the straw in perfect sipping position and to close it securely. Whatever position the straw is in, it’ll never leak or leave you to wipe up a mess.
As a Mom I think this cup is brilliant because so many sippy cups spill and leak in diaper bags which is just annoying and messy. I have lots of friends back home that swear by straw cups so I was excited to try one. Blondie Boy loved the cup, but I can't get him to grasp the idea of a straw. He happily toted it around and gnawed on the straw, but he couldn't actually drink water out of it. So while in theory I can recommend it, in practice I can't.
Does anyone have any tips for teaching a baby how to drink out of a straw?
