Maybe a sippy cup instead. How about a sticker/sign on her saying she's a breastfed baby! Can't she also carry a blanket or teddy bear.

  I received this plea for help today.  Any thoughts?

  Help! My daughter wants to carry around a bottle as part of her "baby" 
  Halloween costume! I told her babies have no use for bottles, but she 
  argues that she could sip water with it and constantly rinse sugar off 
  her teeth...

  [for non-US citizens, the Halloween tradition here on Oct 31 is to dress up
  in costume--scary, foolish, whatever--and go from door to door through the
  neighborhood, ringing doorbells and shouting "Trick or Treat!" and receiving
  candy in return.]
