Think of your child's bladder like a balloon. Now imagine shaking that balloon full of fizzy liquid... 🎈
That's what caffeine and sugar in energy drinks do. They irritate the bladder, making it jumpy and harder for your child to control when they need to wee.
Swap the fizzy drink for water – your child’s bladder will thank you!
