The "Snack-Trap" consists of a attractive, colorfully imprinted, tip-resistant, handled cup that allows toddlers to grasp and hold the cup themselves. The unique, patent-pending lid has slits that allow toddlers to see and retrieve food with ease themselves. The lid automatically closes when the toddlers remove their hand. The product allows toddlers to feed themselves while helping to prevent spills when the cup is knocked, dropped, or thrown (as a result of a temper or just for fun). Another major convenience is that the device is portable and useful at home, outdoors, or in the car, matching the active lifestyle of most families.
