The NALGENE Grip 'n Gulp features a soft touch lid and a smooth plastic mouthpiece that provide soft comfort for children. A removable sipper valve slides into place from inside the cap to prevent drips and spills. The valve, cup and cap are all dishwasher safe. In addition, the cap is designed with a loop for easy clipping to a backpack, stroller or diaper bag.

Molded into the cup's sides are five- and ten-ounce graduations, as well as 100-, 200- and 300-milliliter graduations. When fully filled, the cup accommodates 12 ounces (360 mL).

"It made perfect sense for NALGENE to develop a toddler's cup; this type of product has been consistently requested by our loyal user base," said Margaret Gregory, director of sales and marketing at NALGENE Consumer Products. "After all, our containers have braved the elements all over the world. We felt we could make a product strong enough to stand up to little kids."

The NALGENE Grip 'n Gulp, made in the USA, is available in translucent pink or blue. Its removable sipper valve is also available in a separate two-pack. The Grip 'n Gulp is compatible with other closures in the NALGENE product line, including the On The Go (OTG (1) See USB OTG.
