Parents know the challenge of keeping hydrated kids mess-free during meals, playtime, or travel. Our Contigo Kids Cups category features two standout 2-packs of 14oz spill-proof options: the Aubrey Water Bottle with Dino & Shark themes in blue and green, and the Straw Tumbler in Strawberry Cream & Blue Raspberry flavors. These cups prioritize durability, fun designs, and easy cleanup, making them essential for busy families seeking reliable solid feeding accessories.
Why Choose Contigo Kids Cups?
Contigo has built a reputation for innovative hydration solutions, extending their expertise to kids' products with cups that withstand drops, tumbles, and enthusiastic use. What sets them apart is the AUTOSPOUT technology in many models, ensuring one-handed operation while preventing leaks—perfect for little hands learning independence. Both cups here are BPA-free, dishwasher-safe (top rack recommended), and sized at 14oz to match school or activity needs without being too bulky.
These cups fit seamlessly into daily routines, from breakfast tables to car seats, thanks to their cup-holder compatibility. Contigo's focus on quality materials means they resist stains and odors, staying fresh longer than many alternatives.

Comparing Contigo Models: Aubrey vs. Straw Tumbler
Both 2-packs offer value with themed pairs, but they cater to slightly different preferences. The Aubrey Water Bottle pack (Dinos & Sharks in blue & green) features a sporty bottle style with a push-button lid for quick access—great for outdoor play or sports where straws might snag. Its ergonomic shape encourages proper grip development.
In contrast, the Straw Tumbler pack (Strawberry Cream & Blue Raspberry) shines with flexible straws for effortless sipping, ideal for younger kids or car rides. The tumbler design provides stability on tables and fits standard holders perfectly. Choose Aubrey for active adventurers needing a no-spill bottle, or the Tumbler for straw-loving sippers who prioritize flavor-inspired fun.
