TalkTools® Straw #1

TalkTools® Straw #1

TalkTools Straw #1 is the entry-level tool in the OPT Straw Drinking Hierarchy, a clinically developed program that uses graded straw resistance to build oral motor strength and straw drinking skills. Straw #1 is the easiest in the series, making it the ideal starting point for clients who are new to therapeutic straw use or who require minimal resistance to initiate straw drinking.

Therapy Goals

  • Introduce functional straw drinking at the lowest level of resistance
  • Build the lip seal, tongue retraction, and sucking pressure needed for straw drinking
  • Develop oral motor strength as a foundation for advancing through the Straw Hierarchy
  • Support the transition from bottle or cup feeding to straw drinking
  • Reduce reliance on compensatory oral patterns during liquid intake
  • First step in the eight-level OPT Straw Drinking Hierarchy, enabling systematic skill progression
  • Lowest resistance level in the series, appropriate for clients beginning straw therapy
  • Clinically designed to build specific oral motor skills in a measurable, step-by-step manner
  • Compact and portable for use in clinic, school, and home settings
  • Easy to clean and replace as part of an ongoing therapy program
  • Children and adults beginning straw drinking therapy
  • Clients with low oral muscle tone related to cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, or autism spectrum disorder
  • Speech-language pathologists and feeding therapists implementing the OPT Straw Drinking Hierarchy
  • Clients transitioning from bottle or open-cup feeding to straw drinking
  • Early intervention, clinic, school-based, and home feeding programs
  • 1 x TalkTools Straw #1
Material BPA-free, food-safe plastic
Safety BPA-free, latex-free
Part of OPT Straw Drinking Hierarchy (Straw #1 through Straw #8)
