Taking care of kids during summer requires attention to their health hydration, and engagement in fun yet safe activities. Here are some essential tips
1. Hydration Nutrition
Encourage kids to drink plenty of water coconut water, or fresh juices to prevent dehydration.
Provide light homemade meals rich in fruits, vegetables, and yogurt to keep them cool.
Avoid junk food and excessive sugary drinks which can lead to dehydration.
2. Sun Protection
Dress them in light colored, breathable cotton clothes.
Apply sunscreen especially if they play outdoors.
Make them wear hats and sunglasses for extra protection.
Avoid peak sun hours 10 AM 4 PM for outdoor activities.
3. Indoor Outdoor Activities
Plan indoor activities like art puzzles reading and storytelling to keep them engaged.
Encourage outdoor play in shaded areas or early morning evening to avoid heatstroke.
Swimming is a great summer activity but ensure adult supervision at all times.
4. Skin Hair Care
Regular baths with mild soap keep the skin fresh and prevent rashes.
Use a mild shampoo and keep their hair tied up to prevent sweat related issues.
Apply aloe vera or cooling lotions for sun exposed skin.
5. Health Safety
Watch out for signs of heat exhaustion like dizziness, nausea, or excessive sweating.
Keep mosquitoes away with repellents or nets, especially in the evenings.
Maintain a consistent sleep schedule despite the summer holidays.
6. Screen Time Balance
Limit excessive TV mobile, and gaming time to avoid eye strain and lethargy.
Encourage hobby based learning like music, dance, or DIY crafts.
