If your child has high fever and won’t drink, you get panicky because the first thing that you think is ‘dehydration’.

This works for us, I thought I would share. Make a bottle (or sippy cup) of your child’s favorite drink. Then, give them some small candy such as m&m’s, aspirin candies, jelly beans, or licorice bits. Tell them to drop it into the bottle. Close the bottle, and watch them smile and drink it all up!

P.S. this can also work in the toilet for boys, if you get what I mean (with cheerios) Rolling Eyes

I've heard winkies being used only after I got married. I guess the original non-kosher one was winkies, a brand name. and then the ultra kosher companies copied the product and called it a.c.

p.s. winkies and winkie pops are the number one triggers for pinworms, for some odd reason.
