3 year olds and sippy cups

Do yo give your 3 year old a sippy cup, just a cup, or juice boxes?

The kind of sippy we use looks like a coffee mug from starbucks.

straw sippies every where except the dinner table...

eh... lots of nights it's the sippy at the dinner table too... I get up 34685 times a meal... and try to avoid a spill or having to refill the cup 5 times.

Re: 3 year olds and sippy cups

Ale uses a regular cup at mealtime (when sitting at the table). For on-the-go I usually use sippy cups. She can also use a regular water bottle, doesn't drink much juice.

I actually just bought her new sippies today and I felt pretty weird but - when we are in the car or on the go, they are the best for us.

DS drinks from a regular cup and I send a juice box into school for snack time.
For lunch, I fill a thermos/cup with milk and send in a cup and they "transfer" for it little at a time.
Once he understood the regular cup & juice boxes, I got rid of all the sippy cups.
