Why use an open cup?

Open cups are highly recommended by weaning professionals and dentists. Introducing open-cup sipping from 6 months old helps to encourage and strengthen the muscles in your babies mouth that are essential for speech and feeding - jaw strength, tongue movement and positioning and lip closure.

An open cup also improves hand-eye-coordination as your baby learns to judge distance, tilt and control — building real-life motor skills from the start.

Importantly, unlike bottles and spouted cups, sipping from an open cup prevents liquids from pooling around the front teeth - keeping you littles ones teeth and gums healthy.

About Dinky Cup

Key Features

Premium, safe materials

The Dinky Cup, like all our silicone products, is made from our premium LFGB-grade silicone. This means it won't transfer odours or tastes and is made from food-grade silicone that is free from BPA, phthalates and PVC.

Dinky Cup — supporting early open-cup sipping

Our best-selling Dinky Cup is specially designed to help babies learn to drink from an open cup. Open-cup sipping helps strengthen the mouth, jaw, tongue, and lip muscles needed for eating and speech, while being gentler on teeth to help prevent decay.

...and because we know spills happen, we’ve added a self-balancing base to make early practice a little less messy. 😉

What makes DinkyCup different?
  • DinkyCup is EXTRA SMALL FOR A GOOD REASON: This 'Dinky' sized open cup is made to measure for tiny hands and mouths. Help your baby transition straight from breast or bottle to independent sipping from as young as 4 months. Standing at 6cm with a capacity of 50ml. Perfectly sized for your little one up to age 18 months.

  • RE-BALANCING ACTION: Babies can be clumsy when learning new skills. That's why our patented rounded bottom design helps so much! Whatever angle your baby replaces the cup to the table or tray, it will re-balance itself. It takes some practice learning to sip by themselves, so every little thing helps to build that confidence. A super special feature that makes the DinkyCup unique and encourages positive learning with higher success.

  • BENEFITS OF OPEN CUPS: Open cups are highly recommended by weaning professionals and dentists. Encourage healthy drinking right from the start with the DinkyCup. Introducing sipping at the beginning of the weaning stages helps promote fine motor skills, oral motor skills and protects your babies' little developing teeth.

  • NON-SLIP GRIPPY DOTS AND VOLUME MEASUREMENT: Designed with grip and texture in mind. The whole surface of our silicone cup is covered in cute tiny grippy dots. It also includes an external and internal volume line (mm) for parents to know exactly how to fill and how much they have sipped.

  • TOXIN FREE - Our silicone is tested to LFGB EU standards. Our products are BPA-free and Phthalates-free. Natural materials that are chemical-free, durable and easy to clean. Hand or dishwasher safe. No crevices at all for bacteria to form.

  • EASY TO CLEAN: Facilitating parent's responsibilities, our baby silicone DinkyCups are dishwasher safe, with no hidden areas for germs to hide.
