I would pass these all the time and thing I don't need them. Of course, now ds's kindergarten suggests they have a water bottle handy.

Did I miss them?

I believe they stopped stocking the kids 4-packs. They still have the larger 3 packs for water and 2 packs for coffee at some of the stores.

I can confirm that they stopped stocking the kids ones - I asked a few months ago.

Definitely not available at Costco right now. I did see them recently at Barnes and Noble.

We got to two pack of coffee style and I just saw them there the other day. We use them for DS's milk and water and I've seen our 6 and 4 year old nieces easily using them for water.

I think she is talking about these:

Although the ones I got at Costco look a little different. DD can use this, but DS cannot. The Contigo website does have some kids cups on sale:

I can't decide if I like the ones I got at Costco yet. I don't like to put water bottles in the dishwasher and these look hard to clean, unless I am missing something and the top comes apart. I just use them for water though.

I'd recommend getting the Funtainers. It's a little pricey. But during warmer weather, you can add ice and don't have to worry about condensation on the outside and the water will stay cold.

If you decide to go with Funtainers - some of them were on clearance at Target within the past week or so. I found Shrek and Ironman for $3.50 each. There was a thread on here about removing the designs with nail polish remover, if neither of those styles float your boat.

Yeah, that's what I meant. Ours from Costco look a little different too, but the concept is the same.

i know, i scoured my local targets (northside chicago) and they were cleaned out. $3.50 is an amazing deal!! I ended up getting a camelbak at target out of desperation.

may bite the bullet and buy from the contigo website too. I like the idea of no straws to clean!!

Anyone know if the contigo mugs are BPA free (the 2 pack for adults from Costco)?

the ones at costco are stainless steel but the tops are plastic... not sure if BPA free.

FYI, I found kids contigo cups at barnes and noble, 2-pack for $11.95 for anyone who needs one now.
