As a mom of two wonderful kids (aged 4 and almost 3), I’m always trying to keep them eating and drinking healthy as much as possible. That being said, my kids do eat cookies, ice cream, candy and all that fun stuff—just in moderation. When it comes to what they drink, I only let them drink REAL fruit juice, milk, and water. That’s it, not too many other options unless you want to get into serious sugar intake. We had the chance to try a brand new drink for kids, O.N.E. Kids* Coconut Water. Here’s some info from their website:
Four Delicious Flavors!
“We created O.N.E. Kids to offer a great tasting, super hydrating and nutritious beverage choice for kids (and their parents). O.N.E. Kids has all the benefits of coconut water combined with great tasting fruit juices kids already love. With less sugar than most fruit juices, and the five essential electrolytes naturally present in coconut water, O.N.E. Kids is O.N.E. step in the right direction for kids and parents who care about their health.”
My kids just love these little “juice boxes” (the don’t know it’s healthy!) and I love that it’s good for them! Out of 4 flavors (Orange, Fruit Punch, Apple, Raspberry Lemonade) my son’s favorite is Raspberry Lemonade and my daughter’s is Apple. I suspect my son’s affinity for Wow Wow Wubbzy caused him to pick something similar to DazzleBerry Lemonade. If your kids watch Wubbzy you’ll know what I mean! 🙂
Overall, I love that my kids like drinking O.N.E. Kids Coconut Water, it’s a healthier and more hydrating option to juice! You can find out which store near you stocks O.N.E Kids or purchase online at Amazon.com. Guess what? They also make coconut water with adults in mind, too. Stay cool this summer and keep your kids happy too!
Have you tried any of these drinks? What do you drink to stay hydrated in the heat?
