The Kid Kanteen Kid Classic Sport 12oz is made of durable stainless steel. It has a leak resistant cap which keeps your water/beverages inside while the soft silicone spout doesn’t hurt your kiddo’s teeth. The best part about many of Klean Kanteen products is that you can swap the top out with others as they grow or if they get worn out, allowing one water bottle to last many years.

This 16oz stainless steel water bottle is BPA, phthalate, and lead free allowing it to maintain it’s temperature for a LONG time. Featuring assorted Tokidoki characters, your kids will LOVE having this in their backpack and lunch box and will be showing it off as much as possible. The one downside is that they are pricy and hand wash only, but we’ve been using them for months (and yes, hand washing them) and they look as good as new.

Your kids drink the water by not only pulling the water from the straw, but from “biting” the straw top to release their beverage. All parts are dishwasher safe.

BONUS TIPS!

Mabel’s Labels

No matter which cup you choose, since there are at least two in your home, consider purchasing some labels! That way even if you have the SAME cup, each kid knows which one is theirs. They are also great since they provide ID for your bottles when they get left around school extra labels. (The ones we linked you to are dishwasher safe too!)

If you’ve kept the dishwasher baskets from when the littles were….well, littles, then use them to hold all the accessories that are alongside your water bottles. Tops, sleeves, clips, rings, straws and the like, can all be contained in a dishwasher basket so they don’t get tossed around the washer.
