Anyway Up cup review and giveaway

When the toddler was little I went through every range of cups until I found one he was happy with. I didn’t realise until we were sent some Anyway Up cups to review that it had been the very fabulous Anyway Up Cow cup. The toddler adored it until we progressed to a grown up cup and had to put it away.

The people behind Anyway Up cups have just relaunched their range and I was happy to review a cup with Little Sis who really needed to be weaned off a bottle. It was a bit harder than I anticipated which is why we’ve tried and failed so many times! I’ve offered a variety of cups at mealtimes but the Anyway Up cup is the first one she has been happy with. It was like a little light bulb flashed as she figured out what the cup did and she’s been enjoying water and fruit smoothies! Happy mummy and happy Little Sis!

anywayup cup

There are three models – the Anywayup Cup, Anywayup Beaker and the Smiley Cup. They all have a unique, Anywayup patented valve, which is moulded into the mouthpiece to ensure that the spout seals between sips – so absolutely no spills.

The Anyway Up cup has just been relaunched and is available in a few select Sainsbury’s stores as well as online.
