Recommend your sippy cup

I'm thinking of letting Curly experiment with a sippy cup soon.  He's definitely showing interest in cups and always reaches for whatever I'm drinking.  What's a good starter cup that he can get the hang of easily so he's successful?

Thanks!

    Tilty Cup - LOVE it.  No tilting involved and there's no valve so he has no trouble figuring out it's meant for drinking from.

    I think I have about $100 in sippy cups packed away in a drawer in my kitchen!!! My DD has only had good luck with the Walgreens Pharmacy 3pack for $5.00 ones!!! They come in a pack of three (red/yellow/blue OR pink/purple/red). I think they are just the Walgreens brand...but I'm 99% sure they have them at all their locations. I've had DD trying to use a sippy cup since 5mo and we started these cups this week and she's doing great, loving it, and getting just enough at each sip.

    GL!

    Darn, the Tilty is out of stock online, and isn't sold in my state!

    Do those other cups have handles?  Valves?  Curly seems to be lagging a bit in fine motor skills, so I think that a cup without handles would be hard for him to use.

    DS did well with sippy cups that had handles.  It took him awhile to get the hang of it but once he got it down he used any cup.  We mostly had Playtex cups.  And another kind that can go in the freezer and have characters all over them but I don't know what brand those are.  He also liked Nuby cups in the very beginning. 

    DD grabbed DS's sippy cup tonight and just started drinking from it so we're going to grab some cups for her tomorrow.

    ETA:  I think we also used Gerber cups with handles.  I wish I remembered.  LOL.

    Green Sprouts

    No valve so easy to get the water out, but handles.  You do need to tilt, but DS (who is quite behind in motor skills) doesn't seem to have any problems the way the handles are set up.  I actually bought some tilty cups through one of their online vendors, but haven't tried them since I found the Green Sprouts cup and DS took to it.  So now I've got 4 sitting around my house taking up space.
