SOFTOUCH TRAINING STRAW SET
Enjoy a smooth transition from nursing to weaning
Step 1: Learn new oral motor skills
SofTouch™ Training Straw Top (6M+): Comes with a Round Tip and Y Cut. It has a similar design to SofTouch™ nipple so that your baby can practice natural lip closure and smoothly transition to a drinking straw with a familiar shape and touch.
The Gravity Ball Straw attachment allows for multi-angled drinking for your active baby, and has a fully sealed, one-piece silicone design that prevents the gravity ball from detaching from the straw, and for greater hygiene as it prevents dirt from being trapped at hidden corners.
How to clean the products:
After each use, wash thoroughly and sterilize. Immediately after use, rinse in warm water and wash using a Pigeon Liquid Cleanser. Use a sponge brush to wash plastic bottles. You may use SofTouch™ Nipple Brush to wash the straw tops, and SofTouch™ Straw Brush for Gravity Ball Straw to wash the Gravity Ball Straw.
Ensure that all parts including areas which may not be visible are thoroughly washed and rinsed to remove any milk residues.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the Pigeon SOFTOUCH™ Training Straw Set used for?
The Pigeon SOFTOUCH™ Training Straw Set is designed to help babies transition from bottle feeding to straw drinking with confidence. It converts compatible Pigeon SofTouch™ bottles into a straw cup, making it a practical step-up option for babies who are ready to learn new drinking skills. The straw design encourages independent sipping while still feeling familiar to babies used to bottle feeding.
What age is the SOFTOUCH™ Training Straw Set suitable for?
This training straw set is generally suitable for babies from around 6–9 months, or once they show readiness for straw drinking, such as good head control and interest in self-feeding. It’s ideal for supporting oral development while gently introducing a new drinking method without rushing the transition away from bottles.
Is the Training Straw Set safe and easy to clean?
Yes. The SOFTOUCH™ Training Straw Set is made from BPA and BPS-free materials, giving parents peace of mind for everyday use. The straw components can be easily disassembled for thorough cleaning and are suitable for regular washing and sterilising using common methods. Keeping the straw clean helps maintain hygiene and ensures smooth liquid flow for your baby.
How does a training straw help with feeding development?
Learning to drink from a straw helps strengthen lip and mouth muscles, supporting your baby’s oral motor development and independence. Introducing a straw at the right time can make the eventual move to open cups smoother.
