Children’s water cup is a container specially designed for children to hold liquid. Children can generally drink water or milk with children’s water cup. In order to make children more interested, the appearance of the water cup will be designed very novel, and there will be a variety of designs that attract children printed on the cup. So what should we pay attention to when buying children’s water cup？
1. Material quality
In general, plastic water cups have various forms and are not easy to be damaged, but plastic will produce chemical changes under the action of high temperature, thus producing dangerous substances and endangering children’s health; The glass water cup is relatively safe, easy to clean, but easy to break, and if the water contained is too hot, it may not only burn children, but also burst; The stainless steel cup is hard and has the function of heat preservation, but there are trace elements in the cup, which may endanger the health of children. Therefore, cups of different materials have their own advantages and disadvantages. Parents can choose water cups for their children according to their needs. However, it should be noted that precautions must be taken according to the characteristics of the water cup to avoid accidents.
2. Can it be disinfected
Most of the children’s water cups are made of space glass, that is, PC non-toxic plastic materials. They can not only withstand relatively high water temperature, but also are not easily damaged after falling. However, there are very few brands with disposable paper cup training cups for parents to choose from. If you choose this kind of cup, you don’t have to worry about the glass being broken, and you don’t have to worry about the children being hurt. In addition, parents must pay more attention when buying water cups to see whether the outer packaging of the cups states whether they can be machine washed and disinfected. If the cup can be disinfected, it can ensure that the cup is clean and sanitary before the child uses it.
3. Duckbill style or straw style
Children’s cups are divided into duckbill type and straw type. There will be some changes in the details and appearance of the two. If you distinguish carefully, the mouth of these two types of cups is also different. If the mouth of the cup is soft, it is likely to be made of silica gel, which is active and edible and feels like a pacifier; The mouth of the cup is hard and generally made of non-toxic plastic, which is close to the overall feeling of the cup. Parents can choose the cup that the baby prefers. Generally, give the child a soft mouth cup first, and then give him a hard mouth cup, so there is a transition process, which can make the child transition from sucking a pacifier to using a normal cup.
