It is easy to forget to stay hydrated during the winter. When it is summertime, that hot summer sun is a great reminder that we are thirsty and we need water. But did you know you and your kids need the same amount of water year round? I hate to admit it, but I am guilty of slacking off on water in the winter. Here are some simple tips for winter hydration for you and the kiddos.
7 Tips for Winter Hydration
1. Fill their favorite water bottle daily. If the bottle or cup is fun and ready for them to drink out of they are more apt to grab it.
2. Let your kids fill up their bottles. Getting them involved always makes them happy. My kids love to be helpers.
3. Bring everyone a water when you head out. It is easy to forget to drink water when you are out and about. Our family always fills up before we do to town and do errands.
4. Sometimes cold weather makes drinking ice cold water unappealing. Let the kids drink room temperature water or even warm water at times.
5. The kids might get bored with water. I know I do. Make it fun for them by adding some slices of fruit – think lemon, oranges, watermelon, or cucumbers.
6. Dry cold weather means it is time to pull out the humidifier at night. Use a child safe one to keep their lungs and nose nicely lubricated.
7. Eat healthy fruits and vegetables. There is a lot of water content in those little guys. Also, think about making and eating soups. Lots of water and vegetables can keep you warm and hydrated during the winter!

I really love this cup and so does my Little Man. Four reasons I really do love it: 1. It doesn’t leak. 2. It is insulated. 3. It holds 9 oz of water which is great. 3. The fact that it cliks when it is shut properly. Priceless. You have no idea how many cups have leaked on us over the years. This cup has honestly been our favorite so far. We highly recommend it.
