The baby and toddler cup market is huge and it’s literally mind boggling trying to work out which one(s) to buy. I quite like this little invention, the Litecup, which is non-spill cup combined with a nightlight.
So how does it work considering that it looks like a wide rimmed cup?
The Litecup features a patented valve technology that allows it to be used like an open cup but it automatically seals when your childs lips leave the rim. Each cup, which comes in either a blue, purple, or white rim, has a Litebase which is a liight sensor that lasts for up to 3 months. As daylight approaches it will switch off plus it also has an off switch. Nifty!
Personally, as someone who wakes up scrambling around looking for my drink in the night, this could be great for me never mind a child! Jo, the owner of Funky Bubba also gave one to her sister who has a 4 week old and is getting up to breastfeed in the night. I remember those thirsty nights all too well!
The Litecups are £5.99 each at Funky Bubba and you can get 2 pack of replacement lightbases for £3.30.
Oh I discovered these yesterday! And I too think they’re FAB!!!!
I wish i’d had one when I was still breastfeeding during the night.. I was forever tipping over my water!!!!
an ingenious idea with the auto lights and to be able to replace the lightbases, what great value for money!!
My boys will each be getting one for a ‘stocking filler’ this Xmas!
They are really well priced and I’m sure a couple of little ones will be getting one from me for Xmas. I owe you a couple of emails and will reply tomo!
