Answers:
Hers is some info you might find handy!. It also depends on how active your child is and whether it's hot!.
Children 4-8 years
1!.7 litres Total water intake per day (including water contained in food)
1!.2 litres Water obtained from drinks per day
1 cup is equal to about 240ml, therefore 1!.2 litres equals 5!.2 cups of water per day!.
Hope this is helpful!.
