When your child makes the transition to independent drinking, this can be a challenging phase. Many children automatically bend their heads far back when drinking from a regular cup, which increases the risk of choking and makes swallowing more difficult. This can lead to restlessness during eating and drinking moments. The Difrax Training Cup with Nose Cutout offers calm and responsible support here. Thanks to the clever design, your child learns the correct drinking posture in a natural way, which ensures more self-confidence at the table and a relaxed transition to a regular cup.
Key benefits
- Optimal drinking posture: The special nose cutout ensures that your child's head remains upright while drinking, making bending the neck backwards a thing of the past.
- Easier swallowing: Because the head remains in a natural, straight position, the swallowing reflex is optimally supported and drinking proceeds more smoothly.
- Speech therapy approved: This design was developed in collaboration with the Difrax medical team and is actively recommended by speech therapists to stimulate healthy oral motor skills.
- Educational tool: As a parent, you can easily keep an eye on the liquid flow, allowing you to optimally guide your child in dosing the sips.
How it works
The Difrax Training Cup is designed to improve the ergonomics of drinking. With a standard cup, the rim blocks the nose, forcing a child to tilt their head back to empty the cup. The nose cutout in this training cup solves this physical obstacle. As a result, the windpipe remains in a safe position and your child can fully concentrate on coordinating lip closure and the swallowing movement. This makes it the ideal first step in the daily routine towards independent drinking from the age of 6 months.
