The Doidy® cup was designed in 1950 by British draftsman Tom Pickering. The prototype of the ""crooked"" cup was created for the home needs of the designer's son, whose pediatrician noticed a problem with abnormal speech development. During a visit to a specialist clinic, the speech therapist recommended immediate abandonment of the bottle and a form of speech therapy involving learning to drink from an open cup.
Because the cups and glasses turned out to be too large and uncomfortable for the boy, his Tom Pickering decided to design the cup himself. This is how Doidy® was created - a handy, light and characteristically cut cup, whose clever design allows the child to see the contents of the cup, does not have to tilt the head much back when drinking, and while drinking it trains important organs and facial muscles needed for the correct articulation of first words.
