What does your 3yo drink milk from?

Hi.
Embarrassingly my 3yo still has milk from a baby bottle morning and night. I don't want him to give up the milk necessarily because he likes it but I'm sure it's not good for his teeth to have in a baby bottle (although we do brush after milk in both cases)
So wondering what to move onto. He drinks water out of a normal plastic cup with no lid, but part of the comfort element for him is lying on his back on our bed with his milk so whatever it is needs a lid. What does your toddler drink from that might fit the brief?
Thanks!

Mine uses a normal cup but I’d look at the Munchkin 360 cup for this. It is non spill but you drink from it as normal.

How about removing the milk completely at bed time and just keeping the cuddle?

They don't need milk at bedtime at 3 surely?

Cow cups are great - non spill so he’ll be able to lie down with. Both of mine (4 and 18mths), love theirs. You can buy a pack from Amazon but Sainsbury’s and jojo maman sell them too.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Love the look of the cow cup. Hopefully the funky pattern will persuade him!

We use the cow cup for both of ours, they've both used it from around 18months I think and my 4 (almost 5!) yearl old still has milk in it when he's drinking somewhere out of the kitchen (but open cups in the kitchen as spills ok in there!).

Recommend too!
