*** See below for update ***
Like many parents, we struggled to find the best way to teach our little girl to drink from a cup. We tried various forms of sippy cups, but she couldn't seem to figure out how the mouthpiece worked. And we didn't want to start with regular cups because the water would end up everywhere.
Then I stumbled across these. I have to say, I'm VERY impressed by the ingenious simplicity of their design. There are three pieces: the cup itself, a white two-handled "lid" that has lots of tiny holes in it, and a silicone "cap" that snaps into the lid. When the cup is tilted, liquid inside it passes through the holes in the lid but is stopped by the silicone cap. Applying a bit of downward pressure on the edge of the cap creates a small opening which allows liquid to flow out from beneath the cap, but only where the pressure was applied. So when our little one raises the cup to drink from it, nothing actually flows from it until she puts it to her mouth and a little pressure from her teeth/gums creates an opening in the silicone cap.
This cup has been indispensable for helping our daughter learn to drink small amounts of water.
Some things I really like about this cup:
1) It's very sturdy. This cup has landed on the floor many times and shows no signs of damage.
2) It's about as leak-proof as you can get for an infant/child cup. Our little one waves it around in the air, knocks it over, and occasionally launches it onto the floor. If it hits the floor hard a drop or two may spill, but that's it.
3) The cup's two handles make it easy for little hand to hold.
4) Your little one can drink from anywhere along the rim.
5) It is dishwasher safe.
The only [very small] complaint I have is that the silicone top can be a little tricky to separate from the cap. You just have to get a really firm grip on the center circle and pull hard. Fortunately both pieces are tough enough that it would be tough to damage either one in the process.
TIP: When we first tried this cup with our daughter, initially she couldn't figure out how it "worked." Unlike her bottle, it has no nipple, and of course she didn't realize that she had to press her upper gums/teeth against the silicone to get water to come out. So we actually removed the silicone top and then, holding the top of the cup against her lower lip, tilted the cup slowly to allow a little water to flow into the cap and then into her mouth. A couple of weeks later, when she seemed to understand the concept, we put the silicone top back on and she learned to bite down on it gently to make water come out. When doing this technique, note that the more full the cup is, the easier it is to control how much water enters the cap when you tilt it, so make sure the cup is fairly full when you try it.
Overall we couldn't be happier with these cups! Highly recommended.

UPDATE 4/10/2019
--------------------------
We still love these cups, but after several months of use we noticed they were developing black mold beneath the silicone ring that sits at the top of the threads on the cap. At first we were dismayed and thought we would have to throw all of the cups away. However, I removed all of the silicone rings from the caps, soaked everything in a vinegar solution, then scrubbed and washed the rings and caps thoroughly, and they are as good as new!
The point here is that even though these cups are dishwasher safe, you DO need to remove the silicone rings from time to time and wash them so mold doesn't accumulate beneath them. At this point we remove the rings every time we wash the cups -- they go into a small basket in our dishwasher along with the colored silicone tops -- and we haven't had any more problem with mold. It may be unnecessary to remove the rings every time you wash the cups, but for us it's easier than trying to remember when we last did it.
So, a small extra step to be sure these cups are mold-free. It doesn't take away from how much we like these cups!
