I started my oldest on playing with a sippy cup around 4 months, letting him hold it and experiment with it and whatnot. He started to use it at 6 months, but it took a while to find ones that he actually took to. He would always bite the "nuby" soft top ones, so we ended up going out and getting the gerber graduate ones, they have a somewhat soft rubber like spout and are bent so its easier for the baby to hold! hope thats a little bit of help!
