According to the recommendations in Dietary Guide for China Residents, Balanced Dietary Pagoda for Preschool Children in China and Dietary Guide for School-age Children in China, the demand for water for children under 1 years old varies with age:
1, 6 months to 1 year old, the total daily water intake is 9 ml (milk/food+drinking water), of which the milk consumption is 5 ~.
2, 1~2 years old, the total water intake is 13ml (milk/food+drinking water), of which the milk consumption is 4 ~ 6ml;
3, 2~3 years old, drinking 6~7 ml;
4, 4~5 years old, 7~8 ml;
5, 5~7 years old, 8 ml;
6, 7~1 years old, 1 ml.
Extended information:
It should be reminded that the above amount refers to mild climate and light physical activity level. If you are in a high temperature environment in summer or engage in moderate or above physical activities, you should appropriately increase your water intake. The above appropriate intake can be understood as the daily "passing line", and on this basis, it should be flexibly adjusted according to the specific situation of children and environmental conditions.
in addition to referring to the intake suggestions, there is also a trick to observe the urine color of children. If the color is transparent and clear or slightly yellow, it means that drinking water is better; If the urine color is obviously concentrated and yellow, it should be replenished immediately.
Many children may not like drinking water. On the one hand, parents should demonstrate more and drive their children to drink water together. On the other hand, take some methods to guide children. For example, play a toast game with children, or embed the story of drinking water into the cartoon characters that children like. For older children, you can educate them directly and tell them the benefits of drinking water. In any case, don't let children get into the habit of using fruit juice and sweet drinks instead of drinking water.
