Ds 20 months likes to have a drink of water in his cot at bedtime, during the day he drinks from a tommee tippee free flow cup but have found that during the night when he's had a drink, he's falling back to sleep with it in his hand, and therefore on its side. Then he wakes around 2am presumably because himself and his bed is sodden, cue a middle of the night total bed and clothes change. Has anyone got a suggestion of an amazing spill proof toddler cup please??

I would be focusing on getting him to go to bed without it tbh.

You need a Munchkin 360 sippy cup. You use the same action as drinking from a proper cup but it has a seal around all edges and a lid in the middle so nothing comes out unless you are drinking. You can drink from them upside down and they don't leak.

Just get a Tommy tippee non spill one from any supermarket.

Thanks @HPandTheNeverEndingBedtime
What's the top like, is it like the screw on silicone ones?
@justabigdisco why's that then? I asked advice on which cup to try, not whether to give him a drink or not. He's a terrible sleeper at the best of times and him having a drink in his cot stops him waking me up every hour in the night.

DDs 12 now its ages since she had one, there's an image on amazon, if I remember rightly the white bit screws on, there's a transparent silicon bit that goes all the way around and then you push the hard plastic top in place, the silicon bit acts like a valve so when you suck it the drink comes through.

Another vote for Munchkin 360. They are sealed all the way round unless the child is actually drinking from them. The child doesn't have to do anything (e.g. open a lid, flip a spout) except pick them up and drink. Magic. My kids have both slept with them in their beds overnight plenty of times and they never, ever leak.
