We were going through lots of milk and tea. I was in the habit of buying at least 5 gallons of milk every two weeks. My kids love to drink these things, but it is a killer on the budget! Water is better for them ayway. So I bought us each a water bottle and wrote our names on it with a Sharpie marker. I don't know why, but there is something psychological about having a water bottle. You are more likely to drink water. Who knows what is behind that?
They are allowed 1 cup of milk, 1 cup of juice, and 1 cup of tea per day. That accounts for their three meals. In between meals they are only allowed water. I now only buy 3 gallons of milk every two weeks, and Michael has some tea available to him when he gets home from work instead of an empty container! It works for us.
