Anyone have a water bottle suggestion? 
The teacher told me today to send one to school for the kids but I admit, I don't really have one for the kids at this stage! The last one I had was a Brita soft side and while it worked fine for DS, DD likes to turn it upside down and watch the water trickle out. I need two that are relatively leak proof so that they aren't tempting her.
Suggestions?

we've been using the thermos bottles and it survived a full year of public pre-k! charlie has the spiderman one and i just got a hello kitty one for olive.

Thermos foogo! As long as there's no water in the straw it doesn't leak.

We have used a Thermos bottle for about a year and a half and recently got a Camelback that DD likes.

See, we've had the Foogos leak. I just bought a camelbak and it leaks too if they push the valve out of position (relatively easy). I saw good reviews on Amazon for naglene ...
May try that next.

I bought a three-pack of Contigo kid-sized bottles from Costco for $15—such a good deal! I have the bigger version and now my daughter loves having one her own size.

@Mrs. Rabbit: i've been interested in the contigo except that olive loves straws!

@Mrs. Bee: Julia LOVES this water bottle and she loves straws, she doesn't even know how to drink out of a bottle, because she went to straw first. You still suck out of the contigo just like a straw!

we have enjoyed the toddler-size camelbak. I'm not sure if they still make it (got ours in 2011 I think) but we have the metal one. it has some serious dents at this point but still works!

we just use a smaller adult sized camelbak for our toddler. sometimes the full sized 1L one, if we can't find the smaller one!
I find kid sized bottles don't hold enough water!

@Mrs. Rabbit: & @Mrs. Bee: I was coming here to recommend the 3 pack of Contigo's at Costco. We love them, Maddy is 3 and Charlie is 1 and they both can drink out of it perfectly.

At home for meals we have NUK/Gerber training cups in type 4. That has also been completely leak proof so far. (We have the euro version though).

I use Sigg bottles. Stainless steel. Made in Switzerland. And they have a lot of different sizes and characters.
