Teo, practicing drinking from a cup | Enjoying his first cup with Sophie

For babies, their first cup is a bit of a mystery.

They hold it, put it to their mouth, tip it.
"How do I use this?" they slowly discover for themselves.

This time, Sophie's ambassador TEO-kun challenged cup drinking with Sophie's baby cup. @d.sn04

At first, TEO-kun was playing with the cup, wondering "What is this?", but once he realized that tilting the cup would make a drink come out, he apparently started tilting the cup with all his might to drink.

Here, we introduce TEO-kun's adorable cup drinking practice.

The first cup, which started with "What is this?"

Faced with a cup they've never seen before, their curiosity is piqued. They pick it up, put it to their mouth, and play with it.
For babies, this is also a precious "first" experience.While it's just a cup to adults, it's like a new toy to babies.They touch it, examine it, and figure out how to use it in their own way.

TEO-kun also apparently started by playing with the cup in his mouth.
However, once he realized that the drink inside reached his mouth...
He then began to tilt the cup with all his might and drink.

"The drink came out!"

Such a small discovery may have led to his interest in the cup.

Sophie peeks out with every sip

Sophie's baby cup has another fun feature.Inside the transparent cup, of course, is Sophie the Giraffe.Every time the cup is tilted, Sophie appears and disappears.Even while engrossed in drinking, Sophie, who sometimes peeks out, becomes a point of interest.TEO-kun was also so captivated by Sophie peeking out that he apparently didn't let go of the cup.While it's a cup for drinking, it also offers the fun of playing with Sophie.Such small playfulness becomes the trigger for babies to pick up their first cup.

Handles that fit securely in baby's small hands

When starting cup drinking, a common concern is, "Can my baby hold it themselves?"Sophie's baby cup has handles on both sides.It can be held securely with both hands, and the handles also have a non-slip feature.Once the baby gets used to holding the cup, an adult can gently support their hands while they gradually try to tilt it themselves.This design gently supports the baby's desire to "do it myself".Of course, it's okay if they don't drink perfectly at first.

Spilling, looking at the cup, playing with it while holding it.Each of these experiences is also a time for them to get used to the cup.

Not just at home, but also for outings

When going out with a baby, parents often bring drinks.Sophie's baby cup has an inner lid, designed to prevent spills when carrying it.For walks in the park or short outings.With their favorite Sophie, hydration time can also be a fun moment.

The main body uses Tritan, which has a glass-like transparency.Since the inside of the cup is clearly visible, you can also enjoy the sight of Sophie.

Pour a drink and tilt the cup.

Then, Sophie peeks out.

Tilt it again, and she peeks out again.

There's such a small joy inside the cup that makes babies want to see it again and again.

"Fun" is more important than "practice"

The pace of cup drinking varies slightly from baby to baby.Some babies can drink skillfully right away, while others start by touching the cup or putting it to their mouth.That's why, rather than just focusing on what they can or can't do,

"You held it by yourself today."

"You tilted it a little."

"You found Sophie."

It's important to enjoy such small changes and proceed at a relaxed pace.TEO-kun also started by playing with the cup, wondering "What is this?", and gradually moved towards "Let's drink."

A baby's own curiosity might guide them to the next step.

Make the first cup drinking experience a fun time, not a strenuous practice.

With Sophie, even such small growth will surely become wonderful memories.
