Water is the best drink for children! 💧 It’s calorie-free, keeps them hydrated, and supports healthy joints, bones, and teeth. Plus, it helps with blood circulation and weight management.
💦 How much water your child needs to drink depends on their age. Use this handy chart that shares the recommended amounts for young children in each age group.
Babies under 6 months only need to drink breast milk or formula to get all the water they need. 🤱 After 6 months, you can start introducing water.
👉 For older children between ages 5 and 8, aim for 5 cups of water per day. For kids above 8, boost it to 7-8 cups per day.
And for our young athletes, remember to keep water handy before, during, and after their games and practices to keep them hydrated! 🏀
