FAQs
What is the Don’t Drop It® ?
The Don’t Drop It® is a food-grade silicone suction cup toy strap/tether that can be attached at the loop end to sippy cups, toys, and so much more and then adhered to a smooth, flat, dry surface at the suction cup end. It is long enough for functional movement such as drinking, but not too long as to risk the item touching the ground. The Don’t Drop It® itself is not a teether or chew toy but can be used to keep those items from falling to the ground. The Don’t Drop It® is flexible and compact for you to take anywhere. You can put one in the diaper bag, your purse, the kitchen drawer, wherever! It is also very easy to clean.
Who can use the Don’t Drop It® ?
The Don’t Drop It® is for all ages four months and older, but if using for an infant the ideal age range is 4 months to 9 months. Make no mistake though, the Don’t Drop It® is not only for babies! You will find the Don’t Drop It® to prove very useful for anything that you keep dropping, knocking off surfaces, or simply want to stay close to the area it’s needed.
How do I use the Don’t Drop It® ?
The Don’t Drop It® is very simple to use! To use with a cup or bottle, carefully stretch the loop open and slide, don’t roll, the loop around and up the drinking item. For anything you can’t slide the loop around, you can simply put the suction cup all the way through the loop around your item and pull just tight enough until the silicone pieces grip to each other and to the item. When adhering the suction cup, make sure you are using it on a smooth, dry, flat surface then press down firmly in the middle of the suction cup to ensure a good grip.
What if my baby wants to mess with the suction cup and try to take it off?
Babies learn so quickly and get smarter every day, which is why we suggest the Don’t Drop It® is best for ages 4 months to 9 months. This is not to say that your baby can’t use it if they’re older and/or want to mess with the suction cup or pull on the strap though! We recommend “out of sight, out of mind” suction cup placement as it seems to be best if they can’t SEE the suction cup. Adhere it to the underside of the highchair tray or to the side of the highchair seat, just anywhere that it’s out of their sight, and make sure to press down firmly in the middle of the suction cup for a strong hold.
