What are the best drinks for staying hydrated?

Water is a really good choice for children to keep well hydrated, and it’s good to introduce water as a
drink early on so that children get used to the plain taste. Other drinks such as milk and fruit juice can
also provide fluid and other nutrients.

Countable nouns.
Countable nouns are the ones that can be easily counted.
✓ Countable nouns can be singular (an egg) or plural (eggs). Before singular countable nouns, we
can use a/an, the, my, this, one etc.
Example: I have an eraser in my pencil case. I bought an interesting book.

✓ Before plural countable nouns, we can also use some, any, many, few, etc.
Example: I have many students in my class. I boiled some eggs for breakfast.

✓ Uncountable nouns.
‘Meat’ is an uncountable noun. We cannot count uncountable nouns. For example, we cannot say
‘two meats’. We can use uncountable nouns alone or with the, some, any, much, a lot of, etc:
Note: uncountable nouns have no plural form.
Example: I listened to some music to relax. Charles has a lot of homework to do.
