We are in full back-to-school season here at our house. With my daughter now a cheerleader and my son starting baseball, hydration is key. I love how times have changed and we are encouraging our children to hydrate like they should!
What is Gululu? Gululu was developed by Bowhead Technology as an interactive water bottle that keeps children hydrated while allowing parents to monitor daily water-drinking progress through an easy to use smartphone app. Gululu provides a technology-enabled solution with a learning-through-play mechanism to address issues pertaining to children’s wellbeing.
The water bottle tracks hydration and encourages the child to drink with the help of an educational pet-growing game DIRECTLY ON THE BOTTLE! As kids consume more water from their Gululu bottle, their virtual pet grows and unlocks new worlds and adventures at the “Gululu Universe." Gululu also has an automatic software and content update system that continuously rolls out new features to keep children engaged.
Gululu's Greater Purpose:
Gululu's mission and contribution is to help children all over the world stay healthy and hydrated! To advance their goal, for every Gululu bottle purchased, a child in a developing country will be provided with clean drinking water! This initiative was created through a partnership with Generosity.org, a humanitarian organization that provides sustainable solutions to the global water crisis, one community at a time. Joining forces with Generosity.org has allowed Gululu to offer programs focused on educating kids on social responsibility and initiate water-well projects for developing countries.
Want to know more? Gululu has been featured in leading global media publications in over 20 countries. Among them are TechCrunch, Yahoo, Vogue, and Forbes that declared Gululu as a “Top 5 best kids’ gadgets.”

Quick Features!
Gululu is an amazing interactive water bottle that provides children with an entertaining reminder to stay hydrated. Parents love it because it doesn't require anything extra from them.

- Monthly themes: Every couple of weeks, Gululu introduces additional features, such as new online campaigns, drinking animations, pet accessories, sound effects, and more. These exciting additions are all automatically updated into the bottle through the cloud.
- Gululu Universe Journey: Children can redeem accessories for their pets with the virtual coins collected along their journey of discovering the Gululu Universe.

No my grandson takes juice to school.
ReplyDeleteYes, I try to remind my kids to stay hydrated at school.
ReplyDeleteWe don't have any kids in school but these bottles look like a great way to keep kids hydrated!
ReplyDeleteThey take bottled water.
ReplyDeleteDon't have any children so I don't have to worry about hydration
ReplyDeleteI know my nieces and nephews certainly forget to visit the water fountain as often as they should. These water bottles are a fantastic idea!
ReplyDeleteMy kids are homeschooled, but I do worry about their hydration on a daily basis. Especially when we are about and about or when they are in their sports classes.
ReplyDeleteYes--they don't always have time to think about it.
ReplyDeleteThey have water to take with them
ReplyDeletesometimes but I make him take a water bottle to school
ReplyDeleteI used to worry about it, but now they let the kids bring plastic water bottles to school, especially when it is hot like this summer!! Some of these old schools don’t even have central air! They have window air conditioners! The school district is trying to upgrade the schools, but sometimes we hear that there isn’t enough money in the budget.
ReplyDeleteYeah, right- Children first!!
I don't too much. My son is allowed to bring his own water to class.
ReplyDeletei have no kids
ReplyDeleteMy kids take their own water bottles with them to school each day!

No I'm worry, I always keep a bottle of water in her backpack.
ReplyDeleteIt is over 100 degrees in our town right now, I am definitely worried about the kids getting enough water throughout the day, especially since they don't want water bottles in the classroom.
ReplyDeleteYes, I definitely worry if my son is staying adequately hydrated while at school.
ReplyDeleteMy kids take their water bottles but I'm always worried they'll forget them in their bags.
ReplyDeleteI have students who often need water throughout the day and these would be great for that.
ReplyDeleteNo. They have water bottles
ReplyDeleteShe just started pre k so I absolutely do worry about if she is getting all the water she needs!
ReplyDeleteYes! We live in hot Florida, and she is outside twice a day for recess and PE.
ReplyDeleteYes--they don't always have time to think about it.
ReplyDeleteYes I do worry and I make sure they have an extra water bottle in their backpacks
ReplyDeleteI always encourage my kids to take extra water with them to school, but I still worry.
ReplyDeleteNo I don't.
ReplyDeleteThis seems like such a brilliant idea! I can never get my son to drink enough water. It seems every time we take him to get blood drawn, we get the scolding for “not drinking enough water”. This is a super cool gadget that I will definitely put on our want list for the holidays.
ReplyDeleteI really don't. Today most classrooms allow a water bottle at the desk or there are fountains within the classroom
ReplyDeleteabsolutely. I always have. they cant just go get something to drink when they like and do they have enough time at lunch time? They have it like 20 minutes per meal. My son really likes to drink. What are they serving them? You never know.
ReplyDeleteMy nephews are old enough to know that staying hydrated is important so I don't worry about them.
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely concerned about my kids' hydration while they're in school. We try to send water bottles to make sure they have access to fresh water all day.
