Drinking using straws

My LO is 1 year and 5 months old. She's entering playgroup soon and still unable to drink using straw. I have tried multiple brands of bottles that have straw input. She can hold and drink her milk bottle on her own but still unable to drink by straw. How do i get her to drink with straw? #advicepls #firsttimedaddy

I watched a YouTube. Cut a bend silicone straw. While emerged in water, use a clean hand to hold the straw. Put the straw into LO mouth and release the pressure to let the water out. After that let LO suck to let water out. Eventually my LO got it. She’s drinking well from straw. Not so much from cup alone 😅 Should be able to find the YT video or I can share when I find it.
