Coolest straw

 

Water should be the first choice when kids need a drink. It keeps them hydrated without containing any unnecessary sugar or calories. But how can you make drinking water more fun? Getting your kids a cool straw that they can only use for drinking water might be the answer.

What you need

A drinking straw your child will be excited to use

How it works

  1. Buy the coolest straw you can find – e.g. colourful, fun shape, favourite character.
  2. Bring it out only when your child asks for water.
  3. Since your child will want to use the straw more often, it could help them get into the habit of drinking more water.
MORE Water

Water is the best choice for thirsty kids. After all, it’s what their bodies are mostly made of. And, unlike soft drinks and juice, drinking water benefits kids by providing essential hydration – without any sugar.

Water helps regulate body temperature, supports digestion, and aids in nutrient absorption. It also promotes healthy brain function and concentration, which is especially important for school-aged children.
To make drinking water more appealing, try infusing it with slices of fresh fruits like citrus or berries. This adds a hint of natural flavor without the added sugars.
Providing easy access to water, such as having a water bottle readily available, can also help kids develop the habit of staying hydrated. 
By prioritizing water as the go-to beverage for kids, you can ensure they are properly hydrated. Remember, a well-hydrated child is a healthy child.
