Children's books: how to choose and what you need to know

By the time the child starts to sit, he is showing more and more independence. The parents should not only approve of the desire for self-service, but also encourage them in every possible way. The faster the mother allows the child to make the first mistakes, the faster he will overcome difficulties and learn many things. One of the first skills that does not require special skills, and the training of which happens most easily, is the ability to drink on your own. To go from a bottle with a pacifier to a cup helps an intermediate option - a variety of children's books.

What are the recorders?

Specialty stores of children's products offer parents a huge amount of accessories and items that greatly facilitate the care of the kids. Children's books are rightfully at the top of the list of the most popular purchases that moms make for their kids. They come in different forms: their prices, models and mechanism are different, helping to avoid small problems.

Useful such an acquisition will not only be for the child, because the non-spill pot helps him to drink on his own. Its use significantly reduces the risk of pouring water or compote all around, which can not but please any mom. What are the main types of feeders? It:

• Bottle-mugs with a spout;
• Bottles with a silicone straw tube.

A fossil with a straw or a non-spillable?

The purpose of any such accessory is to avoid spilling liquids when the child drinks, but the principle of operation in these two subspecies is somewhat different. Children's drink with a tube suggests that the child needs to be able to draw liquid through the straw. Not every kid can quickly understand what exactly needs to be done to get the liquid into his mouth. In addition, often in such drinkers there are no pens, and they have a rather large volume, which prevents the child from holding it in his hands for up to a year. But what is a disadvantage for a tiny baby, for an older child - a clear advantage, because such children's books do not need to be turned over. The child drinks more liquid, which means that there is no need to constantly pour it into a mug. The most popular manufacturers of such bottles are: Tommee Tippee, Happy Baby, Next, Pigeon.

Mug-non-spillage with a spout can be with a safety valve and without it. The majority of poilnikov are equipped with handles and a protective cap, which covers the nose from getting on it of various bacteria. In addition, there are models made of special plastic that prevents the growth of pathogenic bacteria, which allows compote or juice not to spoil in the tank for a long time (Canpol). Realizing that children often gnaw a bottle spout, and this leads to a worn out disc, the manufacturers offer customers replaceable attachments (Avent, Pigeon, "The World of Childhood").

At what age does the child need a drink?

There are many different kinds of accessories on the market, among which there are models for the youngest children. They can be used from birth. These bottles are characterized by a convenient shape and a soft silicone headband, thanks to which parents can water their child. Mugs-non-spills with a spout and handles are preferable to offer children from six months, but those with a tube, after a year.

When choosing, it is very important to take into account how much the baby can control his movements, and also whether the bottle lies comfortably in his hand.

The age to which the child is useful is a drinker, is not limited. A bottle with a straw can be taken with you for a walk, even when your offspring is 3-4 years old, after all it is convenient, hygienic and practical.

What to consider when choosing?

When choosing a baby's toddler, parents should be guided by the individual characteristics of the child. It happens that he does not like this or that model, and you have to try several types to find the best option. After all, all children are different, their preferences may not be the same, and parents should take them into account when choosing children's books. The testimonies of many parents testify that very small crumbs do not very well perceive a mug with a valve - to drink, the baby needs to make a lot of effort. If he is not yet strong enough (due to his age), it is worthwhile to postpone the use of such a model for a couple of months.

General recommendations for choosing an appellant:

• It should be made of plastic, not containing bisphenol-A, this is a guarantee of its safety.
• The size of the bottle must match the age of the baby - it is too bulky and heavy, it simply can not hold in his hand.
• It is desirable to choose a model without unnecessary bends and perforations, otherwise it will be difficult to wash the drinker.
• The nose or tube should be moderately hard - the soft material the baby will gum easily.

How to teach a child to a cup?

Children's drinkers with a spout help the baby learn how to turn the bottle, encouraging him to quickly learn the drink from a regular cup. Of course, you can do without your drinker, our mothers and grandmothers are an excellent proof of that. Perhaps his absence even faster will teach a child to drink from a regular mug, but is it worth the extra nerves due to sticky spots and dirty clothes and endless washing?
