I believe when young children are down with virus or bacterial infections, the most challenging task of the parents is to get them to drink water, as much fluid as possible.
Thankfully, I was able to convince Nicole to drink plenty of water when she was down with stomach flu 2 days ago. I had to get creative in telling her stories on how the bad virus was playing up in her tummy. I told her she needed to drown the virus with warm water every half an hour and she needed to drink some soup to give her the energy to fight the virus. As silly as the stories could get, it was effective in gushing fluid down into her body to help flush out the virus speedily :)
Well, if your kids have problems taking plain water, you could think of your own silly little stories to convince them too!
