Many parents can’t only look at the capacity, appearance and price of the children’s water bottle, but don’t pay attention to the material of the cup. Because some water glasses made of poor materials, although they have a good appearance and are colorful, can attract the eyes of parents or babies, but they will have a negative impact on children’s health.So what material is better for children’s water bottle?
1. Plastic water bottle
Plastic cups are used more often in life, and there are many kinds of shapes, which children will be more interested in. In addition, the plastic water cup will not be easily damaged and is more durable. Therefore, many parents will choose plastic water cups. But plastic cups also have some disadvantages. If plastic cups are used to hold hot water, some chemical reactions will occur when the plastic is exposed to high temperature, thus producing some harmful substances. These harmful substances will enter the child’s body together with water. If they go on for a long time, the child’s body will be damaged.
2. Glass water bottle
The better children’s water cup is made of glass. The glass is a transparent material. It does not carry any harmful substances. Moreover, if there are stains on the glass, it can be clearly seen. In addition, the glass cup is easier to clean and disinfect. Although it is good, it is easy to break, so many parents are unwilling to buy it. Glass has strong thermal conductivity. If the glass is filled with hot water, children may be scalded. At present, many glass water glasses on the market will have a plastic insulation layer, or double glass, which will not burn children.
3. Stainless steel water bottle
Stainless steel is generally used in heat preservation cups or kettles. Because stainless steel is very strong and not easy to damage, and its thermal conductivity is not strong, it not only has no disadvantages of other materials, but also has its own advantages. Therefore, for parents, stainless steel water cups are the best for children. Therefore, many people will prepare a thermos cup for their children in winter. However, stainless steel contains some trace elements, so be careful when using it.
