Hydrating Food & Drink For Sick Toddlers

by Shikha Gill

When it comes to sick kids hydration is the number one priority. It doesn’t matter what kind of illness they have, a stomach bug, a fever, diarrhoea or a cold, HYDRATION is always the priority. ⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀

Not all kids love to drink water so adding veggies/fruits with a high water content to their meals, serving them as snacks, adding them to smoothies or freezing as popsicles will help contribute to their fluid intake and keep them hydrated.

Some veggies/fruits with a high water content:

Celery

Cucumber

Bell Peppers

Broccoli

Zucchini

Tomatoes

Peaches

Strawberries

Melon

Pineapple

Oranges

Mango

Kiwi

Watermelon


Hydrating Recipes 

1. Green Smoothie 


2. Immune Boosting Smoothie

3. Strawberry & Watermelon Popsicles

4. Watermelon  Cooler

if you’re looking for some ideas on what to feed sick kids, check out my blog post here.  ⠀

⁣Disclaimer: This post is not intended to replace medical advice. If you are concerned your child is unwell or dehydrated seek medical as soon as possible. ⠀⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀
