If your child turns this upside down and pushes the straw part into the floor or shakes it upside down, does anything come out? Thank you.

Nothing comes out if the child turns it upside down and shakes it. The only problem we've had with it is that liquid just comes up and out when it's closed tightly. Pressure issues? Other than that it's a great soppy cup and I can just give baby the cup without worrying about her spilling everywhere.

Yes. My 18 month old has flipped his backwards several times and completely accidentally, he obviously tries to be more careful but if he is backing up and something is in the way it can cause it to flip backwards. Also if they try to lean to much forward, say to pick something up off of the floor, it will flip forward. They are really light weight which is great because its easier for toddlers to maneuver but not so great when it comes to flipping.

No. It just bends when the top is close so nothing leaks out. But, other than that it's just a regular straw.

I don't believe so. I think the child has to turn it themselves if they want it turned.

It depends....my pediatrician recommended starting my son on sippy cups by his 1st birthday. I started with the sippy part and after 3 days he got it so I moved to the straw and thst only took him one day. However, this cup is horrible for the straw...yes it taught my son howto use it but the pressure bbuild-up made the milk always come up the straw and pour out all over the place. I recommend Munchkin click and lock cups, theyv have a straw cup to and no matter how many times it gets dropped it never leaks! Hope this helps.

When the child pushes the balls into the funnel they come out of, the suggestion to flip and shake has worked for me. I've hidden the blue high bouncer ball so that we no longer have the bigger ball problem. It is a delightful toy.

Yes, even with everything closed tight, when I purposely turned the mug upside down, the coffee spilled out the sip area. Just secure the mug in a good spot.

i tipped it upside down and gave it a good shake, the ball didnt come loose. you have to push pretty hard from the bottom to make the ball come out.

The tighter you screw the lid, the more likely the liquid will come back up through the straw. It's possible to screw the lid on just tight enough that it doesn't leak but not so tight that it comes back up through the straw.

It pretty much acts like a travel mug. The lid screws on and you can cap the hole you drink thru/put straw in. If that is open, then yes, some of the liquid will get out if spilled. Overall, I have been very happy with this item.

It is upside down & does not fall out. Soften a stick of butter to room temp. Then spread into butter bell. Easy for children to use also.

Try pushing the straw in deeper. It happens to me when I take it apart to wash and don't put it back together properly. Hope it helps

Not that I've seen... and as a matter of fact I left it out in the rain and I can't figure out how to get the water out of the bottom. I would still recommend this one..it didn't take my son long at all to figure out he couldn't pull up on it...I kind of think even with sand..they'd still tip over with a cart. I buy everybody's kid this for their 1st bday because I love it so much.

I have not had issues with straw leaks unless it's held upside down for an extended period of time. I have a hard time getting water out after a few sips, but my daughter will guzzle half the glass of water before coming up for air! I think it's because it's built for infant/toddler mouths, not adult mouths!

Yes. The top twists around enclosing the straw completely inside. No leaks in almost 9 months, and nice that the straw stays clean even being bumped around inside my daughter's backpack.

The straw is extremely strong!!! Our little loves her's:). If I'm allowed to say just keep a close eye on your baby but it is safe!!! I hope I helped, good luck:)

No. When the straw is in the closed position, a little gap opens up behind it so that even when closed, there is a small opening on the top of the bottle. If the bottle is on its side, it will leak. I have found the OXO kids twist water bottle to be more leak proof: OXO Tot Twist Lid Water Bottle for Big Kids (12 Oz) - Aqua
