Make sure the kids are adequately hydrated. When kids refuse to drink more quantity of water, find a replacement. You can provide them colorful fresh fruit juices, tender coconut and of course, water based fruits.
Schedule outdoor games only in the morning and evening. You can have the afternoon hours for creative play indoors or watching some movies. Make sure that they wear loose and soothing fabric in light and pastel shades. Do not let them wear synthetics and don’t let the children play during the mid-noon. Also, ensure that they shower at least twice daily. Heat related diseases, if untreated can be fatal.
Do not leave the child alone in the car even if it is for five minutes!
Do not let the child go near a microwave (when it is being used) or even when you are grilling something. Anyone who refuses to use a cosmo range hoods while cooking must be dealt with some consequences while cooking.
Ensure that the children wear sunscreen or a moisturizer lotion to avoid being sunburns. Although cosmetics and skin care products are not recommended to be used on kids, you can always consider organic products.
