I just came from my son's track & field meet. I sent him off this morning, with a nutritious lunch, one drink and one bottled water. I live in Canada and we are just getting the hot weather. It's so easy to forget how easily we can become dehydrated.
I am so glad I went. I bought him a couple more waters. They have had children already collapse from the heat and that was before noon. If your child is going to field day, stress the importance of finding the shade and drinking lots of water. Many of those kids were there eating their cookies, not drinking what they should. I really felt bad for them.
As adults, we need to remember that too. When on the golf coarse, gardening, etc., drink lots and lots of water. Avoid heat stroke.
