We're outside most of the morning, mostly in the sun, so I bring water. Everyone has the same straw water bottle every single day, year round (they get it for snacks in winter), so for the most part, everyone knows which one is there's. They aren't allowed to play while carrying it. It's just available, and every so often I'll ask if anyone wants water, and hold it for whomever comes over.
My crew also each have a colour coded straw cup and while they recognise theirs they are too young to not slobber up all the cups when within reach : -) someday they will be old enough and trustworthy!
He does have enough wet diapers on my end but I don't know it is a worthy measure when he takes bottles at home and I know they give a full bottle when he wakes instead of breakfast. He can be peeing out all the formula but still be thirsty in evening, especially since formula is not a thirst quencher.
