Skip Hop Besties Squad Snack Cup - Cat
$24.95
Snacks are the hardest part of leaving the house with a toddler. Not packing them - managing the container while everything else is happening at once. The Skip Hop Besties Squad Cat Snack Cup is built around how snack time actually works: a flexible no-spill opening that lets little hands reach in and pull out a piece of apple or a puff without dumping the whole cup, a snap lid that keeps the contents fresh when the cup is in a bag, and a screw-off top for cleaning that doesn't require wrestling with parts. 222mls of capacity, easy-grip handle, BPA-free, and dishwasher safe on the top rack. The Cat character face gives your child ownership of the cup, which turns out to matter considerably when you need them to carry their own snack.
Two-lid system: no-spill opening plus snap top
The Besties Squad Snack Cup works with two distinct lid functions that do different jobs. The flexible no-spill opening is the silicone layer that keeps snacks contained when the cup is being carried or tipped - fingers can push through to grab a snack, but the contents don't fall out when the cup goes sideways in a bag or a toddler's fist. The snap top sits over that when the cup is packed away, keeping snacks fresh between uses and stopping anything from getting in. One cup, two levels of containment, without the complexity of a multi-part system that loses its pieces.

Why independent snacking is worth designing for
From around 12 months, children can manage snacks independently when the container cooperates. A cup that's too heavy, too fiddly, or too likely to spill becomes a parent-managed task again. The Cat Snack Cup is sized right for a toddler's grip, light enough to carry independently, and designed so that a child who can reach into the cup can manage their own snack without adult help for the retrieval. That independence matters at childcare, on an outing, in the car, and anywhere a parent needs both hands. The easy-grip handle and the flexible opening are doing real work every time the cup is used.

Why Parents Choose the Besties Squad Snack Cup
The Besties Squad Cat Snack Cup earns its place in the nappy bag because it handles the two problems snack containers usually fail: spillage and cleaning. The flexible no-spill opening keeps contents in when the cup is carried, bumped, or held upside down by a toddler testing gravity. The snap lid adds a second layer for bag travel. The screw-off top means you can actually clean the inside. 222mls is the right size for a snack portion. And the Cat character face means your child has a cup they'll recognise as theirs and want to carry independently. It's the cup that stays in the rotation.
The Besties Squad Snack Cup is suitable from 12 months, when children are beginning to manage snacks independently.
The no-spill opening is a flexible silicone layer that allows little fingers to reach in and retrieve snacks, but closes back to contain the contents when pressure is removed. It keeps snacks in when the cup is tipped or jostled during travel. The snap top lid sits over this layer to seal the cup completely when it's packed away in a bag.
The top screws off to give full access to the interior for cleaning. The cup is dishwasher safe on the top rack only. Disassemble before washing.
The Besties Squad Snack Cup holds 222 mls - sized right for a toddler snack portion of fruit pieces, puffs, crackers, or similar finger foods.
The Besties Squad Cat range includes the Cat Tritan Renew Straw Bottle, the Cat Stainless Steel Straw Bottle, the Cat Insulated Food Jar, the Cat Lunch Bag, and the Cat Backpack. The collection is designed to mix and match across characters, so the Cat pieces coordinate with the full Besties Squad range.
