My grandma always gifts us these huge boxes of it for Christmas so about once a week they have a cup. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-drink-choices-do-you-offer#post-2684347 Sat, 21 Jan 2017 09:21:51 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 2684347@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Water. Diluted juice in the morning and after nap. They are offered no real choices. It's water or wait until juice time here. I guess I'm mean lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-drink-choices-do-you-offer#post-2684311 Sat, 21 Jan 2017 05:40:46 +0000 Mrs. Goose 2684311@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Water and milk. She doesn't like soy or almond, but I often use almond milk in a smoothie and she'll drink that. If she sees me have flavoured milk she feels she must have it. She was quite sick in December with norovirus and they told me to offer any and every fluid I could get her to drink. She drank barely anything and barely peed and it was a scary time. </p> <p>She also loves juice boxes which I have on rare occasion. Sometimes I try to hide them if I have one because she'll reach for it...</p> <p>I saw people say their kid likes bubbly water. Bu I assume they are older than a toddler? She always wants my club soda (well any food or drink that I have really) and I used to let her try it but she always spits it out and looks shocked so now I tell her "it's mummy's and I know you don't like the fizzy water". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-drink-choices-do-you-offer#post-2684307 Sat, 21 Jan 2017 03:20:47 +0000 birdofafeather 2684307@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>water. we have almond milk, but DD1 (4) doesn't reach for it first. we've had celebrations and parties lately though, so we do have juice (honest, OJ and mulled cranberry) so she may ask for that too, but i don't offer! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-drink-choices-do-you-offer#post-2684305 Sat, 21 Jan 2017 03:07:41 +0000 Purpledaisy 2684305@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually rice milk or almond milk depending on what we have or water. I also let her have one cup of something else a day. Usually a juice box or lemonade. </p> <p>We aren't strict though. She had some Sierra Mist yesterday :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-drink-choices-do-you-offer#post-2683827 Fri, 20 Jan 2017 09:37:36 +0000 FaithFertility 2683827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Milk or water sometimes watered down milk....lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-drink-choices-do-you-offer#post-2683766 Fri, 20 Jan 2017 08:05:52 +0000 SweetiePie 2683766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Milk or water.

We started juice during potty training to help with constipation and never got off that train. If she asks for juice I give it to her (very diluted).</p> <p>She drinks milk with breakfast, at nap time and at bedtime but she rarely asks for it outside of that. If she asks for it, I give it to her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-drink-choices-do-you-offer#post-2683680 Thu, 19 Jan 2017 22:08:49 +0000 delight 2683680@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Milk or water. On the weekend she usually has AJ or OJ for one breakfast. When she is sick she can have more juice.
