Brecon Carreg launches bottled water for kids

Parents who encourage their children to play outside will realise how vital it is that their off-spring are well-hydrated. Brecon Carreg recognises this, - which is why this natural Welsh water brand has launched a new range of bottled water especially for children aged 5-11.

Water is the best means of staying hydrated as it is calorie-free, healthy and tooth-kind. But for parents who want to offer their children foods and drinks that are natural and water that tastes as good as it looks, natural mineral water, not tap water, has to be the answer. The launch of Brecon Carreg for Kids is timely, as we look forward to the summer months and lots of outdoor activities.

Brecon Carreg is the leading Welsh water, sourced in the beautiful Brecon Beacons National Park; it is the most natural of drinks providing children with a drop of the outdoor life, even when they’re indoors. When deciding what to offer your children only the best will do. Brecon Carreg Natural Mineral Water for Kids is 100% natural, free from added chemicals and calories – one of the healthiest options by far. The handy size of the 300ml bottles is ideal for children to use, and is perfect to put in any school lunchbox, to take on a day trip or just to have conveniently in the garden.

When spending family time enjoying the great outdoors, exploring Britain’s beautiful countryside, there can be few things better than the refreshment a great tasting bottle of natural mineral water can bring. Brecon Carreg kids’ bottles are superb to use when your family is on-the-go, whether on a long car journey to a short walk in the woods, they are easily transported and have the added convenience of a sports cap lid to avoid spillages. They look appealing too with their vibrant pictures – which will help encourage children to reach for this healthiest of drinks. Ensuring there is always bottled water to hand means the whole family can stay happy and hydrated throughout the day.

Brecon Carreg General Manager, Liz Sherry says: “Brecon Carreg is a trusted, wholesome brand for active families. So it was logical to extend the brand’s range by launching a children’s product. The vibrantly eye-catching label design with pictures of active outdoors activities will appeal to children and parents who like spending time outdoors. Brecon Carreg for Kids majors on positive childhood times spent in the fresh-air experiencing some natural, simple pleasures like cycling, running and exploring the countryside, and great water should be part of the tapestry of a life lived to the full.”

“As a parent myself, I want to guarantee my children have the best and lead the healthiest life they can, that’s why giving them real Welsh natural water appeals to me and I think it will to other parents too. Giving your children Brecon Carreg for Kids is a great, inexpensive way to pass on a little of that outdoor feel-good factor.”

Drinking water is not just important when being active. It is a vital daily catalyst for your body to function well. Water makes up 75% of an older child’s body (a higher proportion of a very young child), and the fluid levels are constantly being lost, so need regular topping up. Well-hydrated children have improved concentration and often perform better at school, and by avoiding sugary drinks their teeth and waistlines won’t suffer either. Schools have recognised the benefits of withdrawing carbonated soft drinks, and an overall decline of carbonates in the UK suggests that people agree with drinking ‘healthier’ beverages like water too.

Natural mineral water has, by law, nothing added (except for some adult sparkling waters, where carbon dioxide may be included) and nothing taken out. Encouraging children to drink water from an early age creates healthy habits for life, avoiding problems later on, with Brecon Carreg’s affordable kids’ range priced at around £1.79 (RRP) for six bottles, the option is easy.

In addition, Brecon Carreg is sourced in Britain, which cuts down on food miles whilst helping to preserve the British countryside and jobs. The company that bottles Brecon Carreg takes care of the environment, and constantly strives to minimise their carbon footprint with light-weighting of bottles, reducing their packaging and transport use – championing positive ‘green’ action.
