Abstract
A lid for a drink cup has a cover, and a slider, the slider engaged in sliding motion on the top of a disc of the cover. The disc has an aperture spaced apart from a flap. The slider is able to move to a position covering the aperture so as to prevent liquid from exiting the drink cup and, the slider is also able to move to a position to uncover the aperture to allow liquid to exit the drink cup. When the slider is positioned over the flap, the flap is forced to open slightly to allow air to enter the drink cup for venting action.
