What's it been like the rest of the day / yesterday? I'd be tempted to offer more to drink and if this continues I'd call the GP in the morning.

If child is drinking less than normal and becoming dehydrated then it is possible they are in pain somewhere so don't want to drink. If they are dehydrated for too long that would worry me. Too long would be - this continues and Tuesday morning I'd take child to see the GP for physical assessment.

See what the overnight nappy looks like. And keep offering drinks in the meantime and maybe some ice lollies?.

Jelly is also a good way to get fluids in. I would really push water and milk and reevaluate in the morning if you need to call the GP

Google sunken fontanelle. The images still haunt me - a truly sunken one is not difficult to miss
