Pledge to drink more water this summer & enter the sweepstakes for a chance to win! #ad #hydrationmovement

Join The Hydration Movement by clicking here to pledge!

Being a first time Mom, and not wanting to deal with making overly sugary drinks I have found that buying Nestlé® Pure Life® Purified Water makes it easier to grab, and drink for the importance of keeping the family hydrated.  It's disheartening that 64% of children are insufficiently hydrated when they leave for school in the morning, My 2 year old will even get himself a bottle of water sometimes, because he knows it quenches your thirst.  I feel as if I am doing something right when he grabs that, and doesn't ask for things like soda, or koolaid.  We normally always have atleast 4, 24 packs of water in the house for the "Just in case," scenario.  There are also recycle places all over Columbus, Ohio here, so it's pretty easy to recycle now.


My mom's word of wisdom is to Always be prepared, because you never know where life may take you.

Don't forget to check out Nestlé® Pure Life® Purified Water Life On Facebook  to take the Pledge to drink more water and share your own Mom’s Wisdom story.

There is also a Nestlé® Pure Life® Purified Water Sweepstakes On Facebook for a chance to win the grand prize trip for four (4) to Universal Studios Hollywood or Universal Orlando Resort, or one of the 100 first prizes of a one year’s supply of Nestlé® Pure Life® Purified Water and receive a downloadable coupon to save $1.00 on two (2) .5-Liter or 8 oz. Multi-Packs of Nestlé® Pure Life® Purified Water (15-pack or larger).

What are some of your Mom Words Of Wisdom??
