Help me give my students new, specialized drinkware to reduce our use of single-use, disposable cups that contribute to environmental waste and help them achieve an important self-care developmental milestone.
The little learners in my class are 24 to 36 months old and attend a center-based, toddler class. The majority of the students on my caseload have developmental delays and a variety of abilities. All of my students are unique and amazing!
The students in my class are learning how to drink from a cup but they need specialized drinkware to achieve this developmental milestone, as well as support our classroom motto, “Waste Not, Want Not”, to reduce our environmental waste by eliminating single-use, disposable cups.
The 4 Pack Honey Bear Straw Cups for Babies with 8 Flexible Straws & Cleaning Tools are an excellent tool for very young children to transition from bottle use to straw use, as these baby bear bottles encourage a child's ability to drink independently from a straw because you can squeeze the cup to bring water to the top of the straw. The Ez Pz Mini Cup + Straw Training System made with 100% Silicone Training Cups are innovative, non-slip, and developmentally appropriate systems that are designed to help children meet milestones safely and effectively. The Munchkin® Miracle® 360 Trainer Sippy Cup with Handles and Dr. Brown's Milestones Cheers 360 Training Cup are dentist-recommended, spout less, and the 360-degree drinking edge eliminates spills completely and reduces a child’s frustration while learning. The Nuby No-Spill Sippy Cup with Flex Straw is designed with an easy and firm grip specifically tailored for little toddler hands. The ergonomic design promotes independent drinking as little hands can easily grasp and hold onto the cups. All of the cups will reduce our use of single-use, disposable cups that we use on a daily basis and support independence in self-care skills.
