Description
This kids' melamine beaker carries the Sharks design, a grey and white shark with a wide, toothy grin swimming across a soft aqua blue outside. The rim and the inside are plain white, which keeps the look clean and makes it easy to see how much milk or water is left. It stands 9.1cm tall and 6.2cm across, a gently tapered cup with no handle, and it holds approximately 200ml, a sensible measure for a drink with a meal or a snack. Being melamine, it is light in the hand and easy for a child to pick up and put down.
It belongs on the kitchen table at breakfast, lunch and tea, holding milk, water or squash alongside a child's plate. The shark is drawn in a natural, illustrated style rather than as a cartoon, with careful shading on its fins, gills and tail, so the beaker looks as at home in a calm, neutral kitchen as it does in a busy family one. Because it is melamine rather than glass or ceramic, it is a practical choice for everyday mealtimes, and its compact size tucks neatly into a cupboard or onto a low shelf where a child can reach their own cup.
Care is simple. The beaker is dishwasher safe on the top rack only, and it is not for use in the microwave. Between washes, a quick rinse and a wipe with a soft damp cloth keeps the white rim looking fresh, and drying it before it goes back in the cupboard keeps it ready for the next meal. It is made in Thailand. Set it out at a child's place each morning for a cheerful start to the day, or wrap it as a small, fun present that will be used every day rather than tucked away in a toy box.
