    The purpose of this guide is to explain why your early education child care center or family child care home should serve water to children under your care and to give you information on how to do it. It also describes how providing water fits in with serving other beverages. In addition, the guide includes information on how those participating in the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) can remain in compliance with CACFP regulations in their efforts to serve water.
