The rainy season can offer a lot of fun activities, but it can also come with a lot of illnesses. Your little one can be prone to the common cold, cough, gastrointestinal infections and mosquito-borne diseases.
You don't have to worry though, because there are several things you can do to protect your child during the rainy days:
Pack reliable water-resistant rain gear
Make sure your little one has a raincoat and/or umbrella. Since most kids don't like the idea of bringing extra stuff to school, the best way to encourage them to carry protection against the rain is to get them fun umbrellas and colorful raincoats.
Boost your child's immune system
Don't wait for the rainy season to come before loading up on vitamins and minerals. Boost your child's immune system by making sure he gets all the vitamins he needs. This will protect him from the common cough and cold. Vitamin C and Zinc are also great when it comes to warding off the cold virus. You can also double your child's intake of vitamin-rich food like fruits and vegetables.
Give your kids clean drinking water
Making sure your little one drinks enough clean water helps fight and prevent many illnesses. Water cleanses your child's body, flushing out toxins and the cold virus. When your child is well hydrated, he would be more capable of resisting the cold and flu. Give him Wilkins Distilled Water. Wilkins undergoes 8 stages of purification, so you're sure that you and your family drink only clean water, especially during the rainy season.
Teach your kids proper hand-washing
Prevent germs from getting into your child's body by teaching them how to wash their hands properly. Rainwater can cause ordinary things to become breeding ground for bacteria. It's best if your child knows how important it is to wash their hands before eating and after touching dirty things.
Keep your surroundings clean
Throw away any empty containers around your house, especially those that would collect rainwater and become a breeding ground for mosquitoes. Stagnant water can invite parasites and bacteria and cause water-borne diseases that could affect your child.
Be extra vigilant during the rainy season to make sure your child is safe from any diseases. Do you have your own #DropsOfCare tips and rainy day safety tricks? Post them here!
