hours, To re-charge them for their after-school<br />
activities and homework, encourage them to drink<br />

important task <strong>of</strong> the parents to make sure the kids<br />
are drinking sufficient amount <strong>of</strong> water, too little<br />
water creates false hunger in children, so they make<br />

disease. Children are our future. Our children’s<br />
health and well-being are dependent on our<br />
commitment to promoting food access and good<br />
eating habits at home, at school and in the<br />
community.<br />
