How do you transition a 1 yo from bottles to sippy cups? My ds is rejecting sippys, knocking them away and crying, refusing to eat. I'm going to test out a bunch of different types...

(he's been drinking water from sippy cups for a while) but I don't get how to transition. He either has a bottle or he doesn't.
