Doidy Cup speech therapy training cup model 5001095, grey, for 3+ months

The Doidy Cup speech therapy training cup model 5001095 in grey is designed for infants from 3 months and older to support development of oral-motor skills and independent drinking. Its uniquely angled rim encourages a natural head and neck position while promoting controlled sipping rather than gulping. The cup is lightweight and compact, making it easy for caregivers to hand to babies and for older infants to hold on their own. It is suitable for everyday feeding and for use in speech therapy or feeding therapy settings to assist the transition from bottle to cup.

Advantages

The angled rim design promotes a forward head position that helps reduce air intake and supports oral-motor coordination. The simple, single-piece construction is easy to clean and resistant to disassembly during use. Its compact size and low weight make it convenient for both home use and clinical sessions. The neutral grey color is unobtrusive and suitable for mixed settings, while the open cup format allows caregivers and therapists to observe tongue and lip movement during drinking.

Suitable for

• Infants aged 3 months and older learning to sip from a cup
• Speech and feeding therapy to develop oral-motor control
• Transitioning from bottle or breast to open cup drinking
• Daily home feeding and travel where a lightweight cup is preferred

How to use

Fill the Doidy Cup with a small amount of breast milk, formula, or water. Hold the cup so the angled rim aligns with the infant’s chin and encourage the baby to tilt the cup forward to sip. Allow the infant to practice under supervision, offering short, frequent sessions initially to build tolerance and skill. Therapists can use the open view of the lips and tongue to cue lip closure and tongue positioning as needed.

Usage recommendations

Use supervised practice sessions to introduce the Doidy Cup, starting with small volumes and short durations. Clean the cup after each use with warm soapy water or in the top rack of a dishwasher if the material permits. Replace the cup if it shows signs of wear, cracking, or changes in shape that could affect safe use.
