Select Target Stores Roll Out mOmma Spill-Proof Cups That Help Parents Rock Toddler Mealtime

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Lansinoh Laboratories Inc., the leading mom-preferred brand of breastfeeding accessories and an innovator of toddler mealtime solutions, today announced the launch of its award-winning mOmma® by Lansinoh® cups in select Target stores across the country. Featuring cups that literally “rock” with motion, mOmma (pronounced with a long “O”) products add fun and development-rich play to infant and toddler mealtime — whether at home, outdoors, on vacation or on-the-go.

“The kind of unstructured play that mOmma can help foster has been recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics for developing brain and motor skills in children under 2”

“We’re excited to be partnering with Target to give parents a fresh way to approach toddler mealtime by introducing products with movement and bright colors that stimulate developmental skills, while inspiring laughs and lots of fun,” said Kevin Vyse-Peacock, CEO of Lansinoh.

By combining beautiful Italian style with movement and color, mOmma products are specially designed to engage toddlers, stimulating their curiosity and development by encouraging free play during mealtime. mOmma products incorporate a rounded, ergonomic design that allows cups to rock back and forth, keeping kids entertained. Not only does the rocking promote development, it also prevents the tips of the products from touching the surfaces of tables and high chairs, ensuring maximum hygiene. The Spill-Proof Cup and Straw Cup lids for the mOmma line are interchangeable with the Lansinoh® NaturalWave™ Nipple. This allows moms to easily transition — when a baby is of an appropriate age — from bottles to cups, using the same bases.

“The kind of unstructured play that mOmma can help foster has been recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics for developing brain and motor skills in children under 2,” said Gina Ciagne, contributor to The Huffington Post and Lansinoh’s senior director of professional relations. “Also, with easy-to-hold round shapes that are perfect for toddler hands, mOmma’s cups can help stimulate independent feeding.”

mOmma’s Spill-Proof Cup and Straw Cup are available now in select Target stores nationwide:

mOmma® Spill-Proof Cup With Dual Handles — A Parent Tested Parent Approved 2013 winner, this cup’s round, ergonomic shape is easy for baby to grasp, and the soft, 100 percent silicone spout is gentle on developing teeth and gums. New spill-proof technology prevents leaks, and since it is valve-free it eliminates the hassle of cleaning multiple parts. The Spill-Proof Cup is also available without dual handles.
mOmma® Straw Cup With Dual Handles — This cup was voted Product of the Year 2012 in toddler mealtime by more than 50,180 consumers in a survey by TNS for Product Innovation. With the innovative In & Out™ straw system that stores the straw within the lid, mOmma’s Straw Cup prevents leaks and ensures maximum hygiene when on the go. The Straw Cup is also available without dual handles.

All mOmma products are dishwasher-safe and BPA- and phthalate-free. To find a Target near you that carries mOmma, visit www.mommarocks.com.
