Children are more prone to dehydration than adults
In a study, kids who were given just 1 cup of water before visual and memory tests, scored better and had longer attention spans than kids who didn’t drink water.
Children dehydrate much faster than adults. Always keep water, Gatorade or other fluids on hand while outdoors and traveling.
