slow flowing sippy cups?

my dd (5mo) drinks ebm with avent soft spout sippy cup (the attachment
that goes on top of avent bottles instead of a nipple). The problem is
she's getting too much at a gulp and her face and dress gets all soaked
up. Is there a recommendation for a slow flowing sippy cup?

I don't want to switch back to a nipple because of several reasons.
Thanks.

The sippy cup that has worked best for us has been those 'disposable'
ones - they come in a lot of colors, colored lids, etc. They don't have
a valve and seem easy to get a good sip from without getting too much.

Thanks for your reply. Are the ones you're suggesting ok for 5 month
olds? Can you name the brand?

Thanks.

The brand is First Years, here is a link - its the 'take and toss'
series I was referring to:
http://www.thefirstyears.com/product...sp?pValue=1192
My now 10 month old was drinking from them around 5-6 months. I've
spent money on all sorts of sippy cups but these seem like the best, and
you can't beat the price.

I tried these, but had problems with the tops coming off. I couldn't put
them in a diaper bag without the pressure on the sides forcing the tops off,
and DS quickly learned how to decapitate them (he was older than 5 months,
though!). I stick with tops that screw on. First Years also makes a more
permanent type cup that doesn't have a valve, which we love (less cleaning
involved). They seem to be fairly slow, but the spouts might be a little big
and hard for a baby so young.
