How much should toddlers drink?

I know adults should have 2l+ but how much should toddlers have?

The gremlins have 500ml of milk as 2 bottles per day and they drink water the rest of the time but the total amount of water they drink doesn't seem to be that much. I can't give them a drink bottle to drink from throughout the day coz they either tip it out on the floor or they fill their mouths up and spit it on the floor so they have to ask for a drink and drink it in the kitchen.

I have no idea. isla has around 200mls of milk a day, sometimes up to 400mls- I know thats not the 'correct' ammount but cant get more into her- when she asks for it I give her it, and I offer twice a day also. The rest of the time she drinks water from her sippy bottle thingy. The last 2 days its been really hot and shes had a lot more water.

Daniel has about 400ml of milk a day and anywhere between 200-400 of water

Ekk I have no idea. Alize doesnt drink milk at all now and just has water on demand. He always has a water bottle with him and at DC  they have set times for moring tea lunch etc. Water is given out at every meal or snack.  I gues as ling as they are weeing and have access to drinks to be able to drink when they are thristy then thats all you can do really. OoO the ice blocks they had will contribute too heehehe

Thats a great idea Neoshasmummy, I might steal it! If I put a bottle of water in the fridge and fill all their drinks from it all day, I'll know at the end of the day how much they've had to drink

Good thinking!

Keziah has never been a big water drinker but lately she has started to drink from a small H2Go bottle during the day and a sippy cup at meal times. It's still minimal (maybe 250ml if that but it's a start)
I'm going to steal Neoshasmummy's idea as well so I too can keep an eye on how much water she's drinking

Jake has a cup of milk during the day (150mls or so) plus a bottle at night (200-300mls+) and milk on cereal, plus water with all meals and in between if he asks for it. I've never worried too much about the total amount, as long as he has adequate wet naps - I just let his thirst dictate what he drinks. I have also been wary of not wanting him to fill up too much on water between meals so he eats well at meal times.
He doesn't seem to consume as much water as most of the toddlers above, but does eat heaps of fruit which makes up for it a little. And on hot days definitely guzzles alot more.

The latest research has come out saying we SHOULDN'T be drinking as much water as was previously advised, so I personally wouldn't worry about it too much, as long as they are not dehydrated. Little kids are good at regulating their food and fluid intakes - alot better than us adults!! (unless sick, of course).
