Olababy Silicone Training Cup for Learning to Drink from an Open Cup
5.0(9 reviews)In stockShips within 2 business days
Why it works
Recommended-style open-cup design in soft translucent silicone, tapered for small hands and gentle when (not if) it gets thrown.
Details & benefits
Open-cup drinking is a skill, and hard cups make it a hazard. Feeding specialists encourage open-cup practice from 6 months, but rigid cups crack, clank on teeth, and soak everything when tipped.
This cup is sized for a baby’s two-hand hold, with a soft rim that’s kind to gums and a weighted base that resists tipping. The translucent body lets babies see liquid move as they sip, cause and effect they can watch.
Proof it works: Ranked #1 to 2 in search for silicone training cups, with parents citing it as the cup that finally worked.

FAQ
When should my baby start using an open cup or straw?
Pediatric feeding specialists encourage supervised open-cup and straw practice from around 6 months, ahead of weaning off the bottle by 12-18 months.
Is the straw safe for new teeth?
The straws are soft food-grade silicone: chew-friendly and gentle on gums and new teeth. Replacement straws are available separately.
Is this a spill proof sippy cup?
No, and that’s on purpose. Instead of a spouted sippy cup, Olababy makes open training cups with stable bases that resist tipping, because supervised open-cup practice builds real drinking skills. If you want protection on the go, the Training Cup with Lid + Straw snaps a lid over the same cup for spill-resistant straw drinking.
When should my baby transition from bottle to cup?
Pediatric feeding specialists suggest introducing a cup around 6 months, alongside the bottle, with the goal of weaning off the bottle by 12-18 months. Starting cup practice early with small, supervised sips makes that transition gradual instead of a battle.
Is a silicone sippy cup better than plastic?
We think so. Our cups are 100% food-grade silicone: free of BPA, PVC, lead, and phthalates, and tested to FDA food-contact standards. The soft rim is gentle on gums and new teeth, the material won’t crack when a cup is tipped or thrown, and it goes in the dishwasher (top rack) or a steam sterilizer.
Is this safe for my baby?
Yes. Olababy feeding products are made from 100% high-purity food-grade silicone with no fillers, free of BPA, PVC, lead, and phthalates, and tested to FDA food-contact standards.
How do I clean and sterilize it?
Silicone products are dishwasher safe (top rack) and can be sterilized in boiling water or a steam sterilizer. Air-dry fully before storing.

Our material
“Food-grade silicone” is a purity standard, not a marketing phrase. Olababy uses 100% high-purity food-grade silicone with no fillers, free of BPA, PVC, lead, and phthalates. Unlike plastics, silicone is inert: it doesn’t leach chemicals when heated, sterilized, or chewed on, and it stays soft on developing gums and teeth. Every batch is tested to FDA food-contact standards, and every product is dishwasher-safe.

Why parents pick this
The open cup trainer that skips the sippy stage
Most spill-proof sippy cups do the drinking for your baby. This open cup trainer teaches the real skill. Designed for learning to drink from an open cup from around 6 months, it pairs a weighted base that resists tipping with a soft rim that stays gentle on gums and new teeth, and a translucent body so your baby can watch the water move as they sip.
The 100% high-purity food-grade silicone will not crack if it does take a tumble, and the tapered shape suits a two-handed grip. Top-rack dishwasher safe, a gentle first step in the transition from bottle to cup.

Good quality and well designed products
“We have spoons, plates and cup. Our baby likes to use the toddler spoons as teether toy and the longer baby spoons are convenient for feeding small portions. I love the trainer cups as I don’t have to worry about my baby hurting her gums as it is made of silicone. It is nice that the plate is microwave safe. My package had gone missing so I contacted the company and their customer service was exceptional! So overall, I am a satisfied and happy customer and will recommend this company.”

My baby LOVES this feeding set
“Not only do I love the safe, easy to prepare and clean silicone steam bowl and utensils, but my baby loves the spoon! The shape is easy for her to grasp and the soft silicone is gentle on her mouth.”

Non toxic and holding up to dishwasher!
“Great little non toxic cups for the kids! We have washed in dishwasher several times so far and they still look great.”
★★★★★
Finally neutral colors for my toddler!
“Great colors! I don’t want everything neon pink in my house just because I have a kid. I search and search for muted neutral colors and these were perfect. They have a great texture too not slippery when wet. Easy to clean. I don’t know if they are microwaveable or not but I recommend.”
★★★★★
Perfect starter cups
“A healthy safe and dependable product! This cups are cute and the perfect size for my baby to grab. They have a non-slip surface that helps her grasp the cup. They dont hold doors, easy to clean, stack inside one another nicely. Great buy!”
