These cups are the perfect size for small snacks, and for making individual servings of pudding or gelatin for packing in lunches/saving money. They're sturdy enough that they can be washed and used again and again, and inexpensive enough that losing them isn't a cause for concern.

We love these, along with the majority of the take and toss line!

This review is from: The First Years 6 Pack Take & Toss Snack Cups, 4.5 Ounce, Colors May Vary (Baby Product)

I won't bore you with details that I'm sure will be obvious to everyone looking at this product, but I will tell you things about these cups (and related products in the "Take & Toss" product line) that parents especially will want to know.

First and foremost: YES, THESE CUPS SEAL! You can fill a cup with milk or water or whatever, put a lid on it, turn it upside-down and it WILL NOT LEAK. You can even give it a fair amount of shaking before the lid threatens to come loose. In the four years or so that I've been using these cups, I've only ever seen the lid come off (from shaking) twice. The tightness of the lids can be a blessing or a problem for parents; it will prevent smaller (weaker) children from opening the lid, which may be a good thing or a bad thing depending on your viewpoint. My now-four-year-old daughter can easily open them and she has been able to do so for at least the past year.

YES, the cups are dishwasher-safe. However, I've found that washing them by hand keeps the cups in better condition than washing in the dishwasher. They tend to remain shinier for longer periods of time if you hand wash. Also, if you put a cup in the dishwasher and something else happens to rest upon it, there's a decent chance that the cup will (slightly) deform from the heat and pressure.

The cups are pretty vividly colored. Some of the pictures on Amazon make them look almost pastel in color. They aren't. The colors are very primary and rich.

The cups are very sturdy and will not collapse. I've rested perhaps 30 lbs on top of a cup (with lid) and it did not crush or otherwise deform.

Added bonus: The "Take & Toss" line includes several different sized cups. Most of them share the same lids, so you can easily interchange the lids with one another. That was particularly nice to discover.

This gate is not particularly attractive. It does work well. It is at the top of the stairs and works completely as needed. The baby has not fallen down the stairs yet. And she shake, shake, shakes it!
