Weekly tip: A lid/cover for the Klean Kanteen sippy

One of our best-selling products at Kai Kids is the safe, simple, durable Klean Kanteen sippy. Our baby Garrett has had one since he was around 9 months old and it’s worked as a great alternative to the plastic sippys we used for Kai a few years ago (which i purged from our household last year). But, although we find it doesn’t leak easily, it does not come with a cover or lid.
The other day i was with my friend and now customer Deb, and noticed she had a cover on her son’s Klean Kanteen sippy. I looked closer and it was a very familiar shape. She figured out that the clear plastic cover from her old Avent baby bottles fits perfectly over the top! So now she doesn’t worry if it’s rolling around the bottom of her diaper bag.
I ran upstairs and found i still had some of the covers (all of our old Avent stuff was still buried in a cupboard) and it works perfectly! Many of our customers have asked when Klean Kanteen is going to make a lid and we don’t know if there is one in the works. But now, if you’ve got some old Avent baby bottles around the house, or if you can find some at a second-hand store, you have the perfect solution! And I always love recycling and finding a new purpose for old stuff. Better reused than in the landfill!
