There's so much to celebrate about summer. It's a season full of long days, vacations and parties. When the weather is hot, keeping hydrated is really important. Making it fun is an added bonus. Today, I'm sharing a fun idea that I had to create a summer hydration station complete with perfectly refreshing ideas. This is a sponsored, all opinions are my own.
HYDRATION STATION IDEAS
When it comes to feeling refreshed on a hot sunny day, reaching for an ice cold beverage and some fresh cut fruit is always a must. DIY Hydration Station
For a fun summer, building a quick hydration station is a fantastic idea if I do say so myself. I've been smitten with the idea of using a pool floatie as a cooler, especially for a summer party. Can you blame me for wanting an adorable pineapple float?
The best thing about buying one is that you can actually use in the pool when you're not using it to serve up refreshing goodies.

Blow up your float and fill it with ice. I used about 20-25lbs of ice to fill mine.
Water is a must for keeping hydrated. Mini bottles of water are perfect for a hydration station.
For an added twist, serve fresh mint or blueberries to naturally flavor the water and are small enough to squeeze through the bottle top.
Fresh hydrating fruit is a perfect add on to a hydration station. Make it fun and colorful by choosing fruit like pineapple, strawberries, blueberries, and grapes.
Frozen treats are a must on hot steamy days when everyone is feeling hot and the kids are practically melting from playing all day.

What a fabulous idea! It is SO important to keep hydrated over the summer. My daughter tends to be susceptible to heat sickness so I have to constantly make sure she is hydrated if we are playing outside.

What a clever idea! I love that you put the mint leaves there to add a refreshing touch to the water! Oh, and I would LOOOVE to try the Orchard Cherry Berry (I'm a sucker for all things cherry!).

I would love to try the Strawbanana Bliss. Your hydration station is really cute. Adding the fruit is a great idea.
