It's that time of year again when the air gets crisp, and our hearts warm with the joy of the winter holiday season. From twinkling lights to waiting for the first snowfall, there's a buzz that fills our homes. As we unpack our favorite sweaters, let's embrace all the magic this season has in store for our families.
Here are a few lesser known, and maybe counter-intuitive, safety tips from MARLMARL:
Protect Extremities
Kids love to play outside- even on the chilliest of days! It's crucial to protect their extremities from the cold. Hats, gloves, and scarves are essential, as body heat is often lost through the head, hands, and neck. For younger children, opt for mittens instead of gloves. By keeping them together, they're more effective at keeping little fingers warm.
Sun Protection
The winter sun may seem milder, but its rays can still reflect off snow and cause sunburn. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen to your child's exposed skin before playing outdoors. Don't forget areas like the face and ears, and consider a lip balm with SPF for added protection.
Stay Hydrated
Kids are less likely to feel thirsty in cold weather, but staying hydrated is as important as it is in summer! Encourage your child to drink water regularly. After building snowmen, hot cups of cocoa or herbal tea make great childhood memories! This keeps them hydrated while also maintaining their body temperature in cold weather.
Safety first but of course the holiday season wouldn't be complete without gift-giving!
