DS does not like water either. He drinks milk, juice, sugar free ice tea & Gerber splashers. So since he drinks other things I am not worried.

DS as wouldnt drink water either, until I noticed that whenever we drank from a water bottle he seemed interested in it. So know he alwas has a couple sips of out of the water bottle when we drink it. He may drink about 1oz a day.
He is 15 months

My DD will only drink water if it's really hot out and she's thirsty. Or if we have a water bottle, she loves getting a sip out of the bottle (but I think it's not because she likes the taste, she likes doing what the adults are doing). I wouldn't worry about it, I'm sure if she's drinking enough milk and doesn't seem thirsty it's not a problem.

This is probably not the very best advise but if you really want DD to get interested in water, what about adding a little sugar to make it a little sweet. It might get her to have a little and then you can dwindle down the sugar until it's just water.

Or you could try the flavored waters the ones without addes sugar but just a splash of peach, strawberry etc.
Like the new PUR water filter.
