Estimate how much water your child should drink daily to stay properly hydrated for healthy growth, energy, and overall well-being.
This tool helps parents estimate their child's daily water needs. Adequate hydration is essential for healthy growth, digestion, energy levels, brain function, and overall well-being. This calculator uses age, weight, and activity level to suggest safe and effective hydration guidelines.
| Age Group | Total Water (from drinks & food) |
|---|---|
| Toddlers (1–3 years) | ~1.3 liters (5–6 cups) |
| Children (4–8 years) | ~1.7 liters (7 cups) |
| Boys (9–13 years) | ~2.4 liters (10 cups) |
| Girls (9–13 years) | ~2.1 liters (9 cups) |
| Teens (14–18 years) | ~2.5-3.3 liters (10-14 cups) |
Individual needs vary with climate and health. Drinks high in sugar (like juice and soda) should be limited. Consult a pediatrician if you have concerns about your child's hydration.
