Let your toddler have fun this Winters! :-)




Where does the white go when the snow melts? Children can have excitement and curiosity about almost everything around them.:-)

Winter is an exciting time for kids they love experiencing and playing in those windy evenings and enjoy at fullest. Unfortunately the weather outside isn't very sweet to them it can hit them badly but that doesn't mean we interrupt our child's little enjoyments, this winter let your child have fun outside with just little alertness.So here are some safety winter tips for both parents and children:

General tips :



  • # Check from time to time to make sure your child is warm and dry
  • # Keep children indoors if the temperature falls below −20°C, or if the wind chill is −28°C or greater.
  • # Children younger than eight years of age should always be well supervised outside, with someone elder to them to look after, cultivate buddy playing.
  • # Help children choose play areas with a warm shelter nearby such as a friend’s home.
  • # Advise children to play in an area away from roads, fences and water.
  • # Keep your child skin well moisturized with Vaseline or good body lotion to avoid dryness and itching
  • # Apply sunscreen to exposed skin, even when it’s cloudy.
  • # Keep some interesting warm drinks (Soups, boiled spicy vegetables ) ready and feed your child with them on regular intervals
  • # Green leafy vegetables, berries, citrus fruits, guavas, tomatoes, melons, papayas etc are rich in vitamin c which is best vitamin to fight against germs
  • # Use not too hot water for bath and use mild soaps in winters to avoid skin irritation.
  • # Keep your basic medical care ready in winters like Vaseline vicks, lip balm, cotton, paracetamol, cough syrups etc.


Clothing:


  • # Dress children in several layers of clothing. If they get too warm, they can remove one layer at a time.
  • # Always remove children’s clothing and boots immediately if they accidentally get wet.
  • # Make sure children wear a hat because most body heat is lost through the head.
  • # Have children keep their ears covered at all times to prevent frostbite.
  • # Have children wear mittens instead of gloves.
  • # Dress children in warm boots which are  roomy enough to wiggle their toes.
  • # Remove all woolen cloths which are itchy or irritating to your child
  • # Use scarfs, small hand gloves, smart woolen caps.
