Little Bear Straw Water Bottle

Little Bear Straw water bottle is an innovative children's drinking vessel that exemplifies thoughtful design integration of safety, functionality, and aesthetic appeal. This pediatric hydration solution, which earned the prestigious Golden A' Design Award in the Baby, Kids and Children's Products Design category, features a sophisticated anti-splash mechanism through an ingeniously engineered button system that manages pressure release in two distinct phases. The design, inspired by the friendly and approachable form of a bear, incorporates clear and rounded design language to create an engaging and comfortable user experience for young children. Manufactured using high-quality materials including tritan, PP, and silica gel, the bottle features a specialized gravitational ball mechanism constructed from 304 stainless steel and silica gel at the base of the straw. Available in two capacity variants - 300mL (134mm x 80mm x 140mm) and 450mL (82mm x 82mm x 183mm) - the product addresses a critical safety concern identified through extensive research in maternal communities regarding hot water dispensing and splash prevention. The bottle's innovative design allows for complete disassembly of all components, facilitating thorough cleaning and sterilization of each part. The development process, which spanned from August 2016 to March 2017, involved comprehensive user interviews and market research, resulting in a patented design (Patent number: 201720334842.X) that effectively combines safety, functionality, and child-friendly aesthetics. The design's sophisticated pressure release system operates through a two-stage mechanism: initial button depression releases pressure gradually while preventing splashing, followed by complete lid opening upon button release, demonstrating exceptional attention to user safety and operational simplicity.
