Children and water consumption
What is a realistic amount of water that an 8 year old should be drinking each day. I've heard 5 glasses and I think that is excessive considering they are getting water in so much of their food, fruit and juices. I realize it's a healthy drink choice but 5?? anyone have any common sense advice?

depends on the size of our glass. It is between 5-8 cups of water. As a cup is ab out 8 oz. it should be about minimum of 40 oz. a day. If your child pees regularly and it is a light (pale) yellow it will tell you he is doing well. If he is active he will need that amount. This has a really good break down for you
