Healthy eating for children
Water is the best drink Make sure your child drinks enough. Always give your child a drinking bottle. Water is best! Children between the ages of 4 and 10 need 1 to 1.2 litres of water every day.

"Squeezers" are porridge, rice pudding, pudding or similar in a bag. It is often fruit porridge. This looks like a healthy option. But there can be a lot of sugar in these products.
