• The cup supports the development of natural swallowing and improves the skill of drinking from a cup.
• The ergonomic design makes it easier to control the cup.
• No steep tilting of the neck or spilling the drink on the face.

This child’s first cup from Skandino is designed and made with love in Finland. The cup does not have a spout because many speech language therapists does not recommend its use – long hard spout can cause different motor problems to a still developing small mouth. A child drinking from a Skandino’s cup is like an ordinary cup without fear of the harmful effects of a spout.

The long handles of the Skandino Cup make it easier to control the cup and liquid. The limiting lid and downwardly tapering frame support the development of drinking from a cup safely. The cup can be used without the lid when the child has learned to drink independently.

This adaptive and assistive cup is designed with speech language therapists and occupational therapists.
