Scout, who has never used a straw, saw my mom drinking a smoothie the other day. He was freaking out until he could get a crack at it. I told my mom it wasn’t a big deal because he wouldn’t know how to use the straw anyway. Well, about 20 seconds later he was screaming again, but this time it was from a brain freeze. The little guy was a master at the straw, and drank about 1/2 a cup of the smoothie!

Both of my boys started using a straw at about 6-8 months. Try having him drink up his baby food. This was great when we were on the go and had no time for the slow spoon feeding method. Try it! Have him drink his carrots!
