Given the chance, I start kiddos with a sippy at meal times in the high chair at six months. By a year they have played with it enough to have gotten the hang of it. If I haven't had that chance I start as soon as I can.
When they start solids, they are offered a water cup. By a year old, they are familiar with the cup and bottles are gone.
If I had a child a year+ start with me who was still on a bottle, I would go cold turkey.
