“The month of November is teasing, it makes you cough as early as All Saints’ Day.”

It’s back to school, days are getting shorter. Little by little the winter cold settles.

Do you know that the body of the child is more sensitive than that of adults in the fight against the cold?

Here are some tips to accompany them through the roughness of this period:

First, clothing. The trick of superimposing layers makes it possible to contain temperature differences. Avoid coats and choose a sweater or fleece, add a sleeveless jacket and cover your child with a jacket. This procedure keeps the heat.

Protecting the extremities is essential. The head, neck, hands and feet can be covered with a hat, scarf, gloves and warm socks.

On the other hand, the hydration of the child is fundamental. Just like in summer, hydrating your child on a regular basis is essential. It should be made to drink water at room temperature so as not to generate heat shock. This will allow the stimulation of the metabolism and the reinforcement of the antibodies to avoid the flu state.

In addition, the hydration of the skin is recommended. The skin of children is much thinner and more sensitive than that of adults. It is necessary to anticipate the cutaneous reactions and the irritations. For the lips, the balm or vaseline prevent the gercement and the tears. On the face you can apply a moisturizer. It will be necessary to insist on the dry areas such as the cheeks and the nose. These actions, in addition to nourishing the skin, will form a protective barrier against external aggression due to climate change.

Be more attentive to the medical warning signs. Watch for his cough, his fatigue, and the warmth of his hands. Indeed, exposure to cold increases the energy expenditure of the child, so the consumption of glucose. Therefore, ensuring nutritious meals will promote the child maintains a good metabolism. Some recipes, such as ginger and honey lemonade, cakes made with dried fruits and oleaginous fruits and dark chocolate, will repel the little evils of winter.
