Sippy cups are super convenient and were a marvelous invention to help minimize messes but they can create habits that are difficult to break when you re ready to transition to a regular cup.

In fact your goal should be to have your child drinking from a regular cup by the time they turn two.
When should a toddler stop using a sippy cup.
A number of you mentioned you had no idea either.
I am fact like to start introducing that as early as possible.
Personally i think age 3 should be the cut off.
Start them early babies usually start solids by the time they re 6 months.
However most 2 year olds are able to correctly operate open cups so the onerous falls on the parent to help with the swap over.
And i have no problems after that age was a kid using cups with straws.
While a sippy cup can certainly offer independence for both you and your toddler there comes the time when your child should segue from a sippy cup to an open cup.
I recently wrote about my 4 year old who only drinks milk from her straw sippy cup wondering when to give them up.
So i asked around did some investigative work and discovered 5 important things parents need to know about starting using and stopping sippy cups.
