Starting Sippy Cup/Free Flowing vs Spill Proof?

  • Posted on December 15, 2010 at 1:25 pm

When starting a sippy, did you find it easier to go with the free flowing valve or spill proof, and why?

My thoughts are the free flowing may be easier for baby to get the concept, while spill proof prevents messes while baby is learning….any other thoughts/experiences?

Im asking because my daughter has just sort of been playing around with the spill proof for about 2 months, and she only chews on the spout rather than sucks to make the water come out. She drinks from it, nonetheless, but Im not sure if she is drinking on purpose and realizes she is making the water come out, or if she is just thinks its a leaky teether. Wondering if maybe she will get the concept of drinking from a sippy if it were more free flowing. (She only gets water from the sippy, so messes arent really an issue, it will dry) Thoughts? Thanks!
