A lid and clip combination for a child's drinking cup wherein the lid is permanently attached to a clip or conversely, the lid and clip are molded together to form a unitary construction. The lid is designed to secure to the top part of a cup which is designed to hold liquid. The cup, and therefore the lid, is of a size and shape suitable for small children. The lid comes in various sizes all of which are designed with the express purpose of securing the various lids to cups especially designed for children. The clip also comes in various shapes and designs and is made of a flexible material such as a flexible plastic and serves the same purpose as a clip for a pager or cell phone. The bottom part of the clip is rounded to prevent puncture either to the child's clothing or skin. The lid has a specialized drinking spout which is raised above the generally horizontal surface of the lid.
