Product Information

This may be because there is a difficulty controlling the angle that the cup is tipped at, resulting in too much liquid being dispensed; or by weakness of the muscles of the lips and mouth, so that an effective 'channel' (or seal around a spout) is not produced when the cup is brought to the lips. Health Professionals, the Government and leading health organisations such as The British Dietetic Association* are active in recommending the introduction of an open cup at around 6 months of age and completely stopping the use of a bottle by 12 months. RELIABILITY – For almost 70 years the Doidy Cup has been helping children learn to drink from an open cup. Starting with a small amount of liquid in the DOIDY Cup, your child will soon become adept at drinking from a rim therefore avoiding the problems bottles or sippy cups may cause.

A person may display a poor appetite, but underlying this might be depression, difficulty communicating, pain and/or tiredness. The sloping design allows a more natural upward and downward motion of the hands and arms, it teaches infants to drink from an open cup and how to put it down correctly. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. The Doidy Cup is a fabulous idea and works so well in helping little ones learn to drink from a rimmed cup. Swallow reminders may be suitable if you drink slowly, have reduced sensation in the lips, or reduced muscle control in your mouth and throat, but education and/or supervision may be needed when using this product.

Your GP can refer you to your local speech and language therapy service, or you may be able to refer yourself.

Doidy Cup is a brilliant little cup, designed with its unique slant to teach children to drink from a rim and NOT a spout.Look for retailers who are members of the British Healthcare Trades Association (BHTA), which means that they adhere to the organisation’s code of practice. Babies as young as 3 mths find the two handled cup easy to hold and use, but with Mum’s help the cup can be used from birth. If you find that eating and drinking causes spillage onto your clothes, you may want to consider wearing an apron or bib.

Ideal for people with limited mobility or young children learning to drink, it also ensures the liquid in the cup is clearly visible. Occupational therapists can advise on eating and drinking techniques and equipment to overcome practical difficulties. We recommend caution when warming some drinks (in particular milk) in a Doidy using a microwave as it can lead to patchy heating of the plastic. If the core of your body is stable, upright and well aligned, you are more likely to have better control and movement of the rest of your body.

Infants find this movement perfectly natural, therefore it is so easy to wean them from the breast or bottle.
