When your little one is ready to transition to a "first cup", I definitely recommend the Nuby SoftFlex Natural Sipper.
This BPA free cup has a one piece No-Spill silicone spout making it easy to use, easy to clean, and hard to misplace parts!! The valve on the spout opens with minimum pressure, which makes for a more natural drinking action. What does that mean for your little sweet heart? They aren't constantly sucking, which can damage those new little teeth and soft palates. The easy-grip handles are perfect for little hands and are also removable making them perfect for transitioning to self-feeding. 
Nuby didn't miss a beat by making all of their sipper cups and infafeeders fully interchangeable with the SoftFlex nursers and nipple system - convenience and flexibility abound! This 8 oz cup is recommended for 6+ months and is designed to grow with your little one.
