- This process takes time
- Let your baby space to use the cup without reacting -- just know that spills and breaks can happen
- Model the behavior often! Your baby is always watching you, so include them in family meals and allow them to watch you eat and drink.

I love it! The video is absolutely adorable. She's so tiny. I wish I would have known about Montessori when my kiddos were babies. It would have made such a difference. Thank you for sharing experiences you're having with your beautiful baby girl!

I love this! We introduced a cup to both my girls around this age and loved how easily they learned to drink from a regular cup. I didn't realize how unusual it was until my older daughter started having two and three year old friends who couldn't drink from a cup without spilling. Meanwhile, my fifteen month old walks through the room holding her open cup and drinks confidently. How refreshing!

Doesn't breaking a dish cut the child? How do you avoid this?
