Abstract
This study is conducted to determine the effect of season on beverage consumption of parents and children. It was performed on randomly selected 240 families which consist of 130 girls and 110 boys at the age of 3-5 in full time preschools. While most of the children have diner with their families, it was determined that they have lunch together less frequently. It was observed that children’s favorite beverages are coke, fresh-squeezed fruit juice and milk whereas they dislike water and buttermilk drink. As regards to winter and summer seasons children drink tea because parents drink tea everyday and also according to the conduct of parents, they drink fresh-squeezed fruit juice and tomato juice once in fifteen days. It was observed that in summer and winter while parents drink instant coffee or Turkish coffee in a few times a week during breakfast, children never drink instant coffee or Turkish coffee.
