5. Drink water, not soda

Keep the message simple by saying that water is healthy while soft drinks are not. Teach them that soft drinks contain too much sugar which is bad for them. Even if the kids don’t understand why sugar is not good for health, you can help them understand the important aspects of health. Sugar contained in soft drinks add no nutrients instead it adds up the unnecessary calories which may lead to several health problems. So make sure you teach this healthy habit to your kid.
