5 Tips On How to Keep Children Safe in Winter

As the temperature drops, your child gets susceptible to various illnesses like cold, cough, viral infections, flu etc.  Hence it becomes very important to keep children safe in winter.

Here are some tips that you can follow:

1. Healthy Diet

You must be satisfied with the thought that your kid is enjoying a great Christmas party and other winter season events in one of the top schools in Mira Bhayandar or in one of the best international schools in your city, however, at the same time you also need to remember that your kid stays healthy as he enjoys all the varied food options that come exclusively during the winter events. Having cakes, pastries, and cookies on occasions and parties is fine, but make sure these are not the only ingredients in his daily life.

Ensure your kid has sufficient amount of fiber, proteins, and essential nutrients so that he can fight off the winter infections like common cold and flu etc.

Winters usually come with a variety of greens and other crunchy vegetables. Include them in the kid’s diet, so that he stays healthy throughout the season.




2. Keep Them Hydrated

There are many schools in Bhayander east and in other parts of Mumbai that offer a variety of sports activities for children. In such cases, if children happen to venture out to school without consuming enough water, it will cause dehydration in their body.

Since winter is a dry season, it is vital for our system to be adequately hydrated. So make sure that the child is drinking a lot of water as this will hydrate his body and keep him active in school activities.



 3. Moisturize

Make sure your kid applies plenty of moisturizing cream after his bath. A good shower followed by dollops of moisturizer will ensure that the child has supple, soft and healthy skin that glows even during the harsh winters.





4. Beware of Clothing Hazards

Scarfs, shawls, and hood strings can strangle kids who are smaller, hence make sure you avoid dressing them up in such clothes. Instead, opt for sweaters, pullovers, caps, hand gloves, high length socks etc, that are easy to wear and remove back.



5. Understand When to Visit the Doctor

Most winter seasons are pretty normal and easy going, however, if you find your baby is wheezing or has trouble breathing or has diarrhea or vomiting etc, ensure you visit the doctor immediately. An early check-up will save your kid from dangerous infections and will help strengthen his body immunity quickly.
