School Going Kids Care: It is important to take special care of children in summer. Let's know how to keep children safe from heat? These tips will be very useful in summer season.

School Going Kids Care: As much as summer is a time for children to play and jump, it is also challenging in terms of health. Especially small children going to school are at special risk from strong sunlight, heat stroke and dehydration. Therefore, it is the responsibility of both parents and schools to keep children safe from heat. In this article, we will tell you in detail about how to keep school-going children safe from heat. Let's know-

wear light and cotton clothes

In summer, dress children in light-coloured, loose and cotton clothes. Cotton clothes allow the skin to breathe, which allows the body's sweat to dry easily. This can prevent rashes and heat rash.

Give plenty of liquids to children

Before sending children to school, give them enough water and keep a water bottle in their bag. Along with this, you can also give them coconut water, lemonade, mango panna or homemade sherbet in lunch. In this way children can be kept hydrated. 

Give light and energetic tiffin to children 

Avoid giving fried foods to children in summer. Heavy food can make children lethargic. Instead, give them light and fresh food full of fruits and vegetables. 

Use sunscreen and cap

If the child is in the sun while going to and coming from school, apply a little kid-friendly sunscreen on his face and hands. Also, send him wearing a hat or cap so that his head remains protected from the sun.

Give me something cold as soon as I return from school 

Allow children to rest for a while after returning from school. Do not give them cold water or anything with ice directly, instead make them wash their hands and face with cold water and give them fresh juice or shikanji.

Pay attention to the symptoms of children in summer

Children can suffer from many problems in the increasing heat, which you need to pay attention to. The symptoms of these problems can be as follows:

• Frequent headaches in a child
• Dizziness without reason
• Vomiting 
• feeling more tired
• Complaint of lack of sweating, etc. 

Such symptoms seen in children may be due to heat stroke. If you see such symptoms, consult a doctor immediately.
