Much too small. I wanted these as sturdy classes my child (2 yrs) could use to pour and for meals. We use them as shot classes instead for us adults.

At first we were surprised at how tiny these glasses are, but they are for our 2 and 3 year old students, and we now find them to be perfect! The children can hold them easily, they have sturdy bases, and they\ children can't drink more than they need. We love them! When students turn 4, they get a glass the next size up.

Nice small glasses. They are very sturdy and just the right size for a child to begin using a 'real' glass.

We purchased these as our baby's first weaning glass when he was 6 months old. I love everything about it except it's sturdiness. We lost 75% of them due to breakage. One spontaneously shattered in the cabinet. One broke in the dishwasher after being shifted around during the wash. Others shatter to a million pieces hitting the tile floor in the kitchen. I understand the importance of breakage, but these are too fragile.

I am a retired montessori teacher after 38 yrs and I purchased these glasses along with plates, bowls, pitchers and utensils for my 2 yr old great nephew who is a Montessori toddler. His parents are thrilled to have the same items at home where he can continue his work!

I bought this set of glasses for my 7 month old granddtr., but they are also her 2 1/2 and 5 year old brothers' favorite sized glasses and they do have the next size up. Love the heavy sturdy glass and the fact that they stack. Montessori Services, thank you for finding such an array of practical and beautiful pieces for the home and school.

I first gave this glass to my daughter at around 8 months old. She seemed to know exactly what to do with it because she watches us drink from cups. However, she does spill most of what's in the cup even at 10 months because she tries to drink too fast. But she does get some! It's perfect for her tiny hands because of the grooves. We have other shot glass around, but this particular glass lends itself to a first cup because the size, the grooves and wider rim. She has thrown and dropped the glass several times, even from high places. It's very durable. (I'm sure it would break if more force was used, but overall, I feel very comfortable letting her have full control of the cup.) I wish that I could have purchased only 2 or 3. But they do stack well, so they don't take up too much room. I look forward to future days when she is able to drink more for the cup.
