I don't think you can go wrong with milk. Jared drinks a lot of milk but I'm warming it up for him now that it's getting chilly out. He also drinks watered down juice.

Sarah always wanted milk at that age, which I thought was great. But the ped told me to limilt her to 16-20oz per day since too much milk can cause anemia! Chat Icon

She drinks a lot of water now, she's not a big on juice. When she does get it I water it down.

Yup, my ped made me stop my son cold turkey because he was drinking way too much of it.

Now he drinks splashers (my own version which is 3/4 of a sippy cup of water with literally a splash of juice for taste) or plain water

Mine drinks milk and watered down juice. Oh and he has a sip of my tea every once in a while (not hot) and sometimes my diet coke.

I am a terrible mother.

Milk

Chocolate or Strawberry milk (I add a splash of syrup - and there is less sugar than in a cup of juice!)

100% juice (watered down for my 18 month old, straight up for my 3.5 year old)

Water

Water and Milk for us.

She doesn't like juices. My ped told me a max of 24 ounces of milk a day :)
