Skin protection of kids in winter

Wintertime requires extra care of kids especially young ones who run around the home without paying heed to what you say about the extra layering of clothes or not going out. So, all the onus of winter protection for kids lies on you as kids will remain kids. However, even after all your efforts, kids get sick or their skin gets extra dry which you can avoid with some little advice mentioned in this post. 



Understand the Winter protection for kids before it is too late.


Okay, here we have some quick reminders that would help skin protection in the winter of kids.

  • Avoid hot water baths and prevent kids from bathing for a long time. It would help the skin to stay happy as a hot water bath for a long time makes the skin dry and itchy.

  • As soon as the kids come out of the bathroom and their skin is still damp, apply a good moisturizer. It will help to keep the skin soft and avoid dryness.                                                                  
  • Apply lip balm regularly to avoid chapped lips of kids. Ask the kids not to lick their lips, as it will make the skin drier.
  • Generally, kids pick and rub their nostrils because the skin inside is dry. Moisturize the skin inside the nose in order to avoid a blood nose. I apply Vaseline petroleum jelly in the nostrils and then squeeze the nose gently so that the jelly spreads evenly.

  • Wearing socks can help the kids to stay warm. It also helps their skin to remain soft and does not get dry due to cold temperatures.
  • Head massage on the weekend increases the blood circulation and make the hair of the kids soft and silky. The dry and cold weather badly affects the kids. Therefore, the oil massage of the head and body is a good way to protect the kids.
  • Look for signs of frostbite such as blistered or pale skin on the nose, ears, fingers, and toes. In case of signs, keep the kids indoors and keep the affected area warm.
  • It is important to keep the kids hydrated. Make them drink plenty of liquids like soups.
  • If your kid suffers from eczema, discover what triggers this skin problem such as fragrant products and detergents. And try to avoid the same. Take adequate precautions and follow home remedies to protect kids from eczema.

These are some simple tips for skin protection in the winter for kids. Follow these from today and enjoy safe weather.

Have a happy winter season!
