Before your child is over six months of age, he or she does not need to consume any supplemental water or juice. All of the liquid your child needs to be healthy and to quench thirst is their regular consumption of breast milk or formula. Giving your baby water before they are six months of age could result in an over-consumption of water, or water poisoning. Even after your child is six months of age, they still do not need to consume much supplemental fluids.
As a rule of thumb, to get enough water, your child or teen should drink at least six to eight cups of water a day and eat the recommended number of servings of fruits and vegetables every day. Also, pay special attention to your child's or teen's water consumption when he or she is physically active. Before, during and after any physical activity, kids need to drink plenty of water, especially in hot weather. The goal is to drink a half cup to two cups of water every 15 to 20 minutes while exercising. Data are from Institute of Medicine of the National Academies. Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs) Tables.
