Steadycups - the answer your soft furnishings have been looking for

It ain’t rocket science, but if these cups stop toddlers from spilling drinks, they’ll earn the thanks of parents everywhere. The design of the award-winning Steadycup (above), with its extra-wide base, apparently makes spillage a distinct improbability, the only mystery being why no-one thought of it before.

Like the Doidy Cup, the Steadycup (invented by yet another mum with a brainwave) is said to help prevent oral health issues brought about by prolonged usage of a spouted cup.

Whatever the case, they look good, and at £1.99 a throw, they aren’t going to break the bank.
