Preparing clothes for children when going out for Tet holiday needs to be taken care of by parents to protect their health and prevent them from catching a cold.
Choose the right outfit
Warm clothing is the first important thing when taking children out during Tet in cold weather. Parents should not be subjective but prepare enough warm clothes for children including sweaters, long pants, socks, gloves and hats.
Note that you should use clothes made of breathable, soft materials and avoid irritating your child's skin. When going outside, you should wear a windbreaker or waterproof jacket to avoid cold rain caused by wind or light rain.
Keep body temperature stable
Keep your child warm during outdoor play. Parents should also avoid letting their child stand for long periods in cold windy places or temperatures below 15°C, as this can easily cause hypothermia.
When traveling by motorbike, you need to cover yourself well, use a scarf, mask and windproof jacket. If your child sweats due to running and jumping a lot, you need to dry them and change clothes immediately to avoid catching a cold.
Maintain diet
A nutritious diet will help children maintain good resistance during the Tet holiday. Before going out, children need to eat well and drink warm water. This is also a way to help children maintain energy and health to go out with their parents at the beginning of the new year.
Ensure hygiene and safety
During meetings and New Year greetings, parents should prepare separate eating utensils for children to avoid digestive or respiratory infections.
In addition, it is important to avoid letting children eat strange foods or play in places with lots of wind and dust, and to instruct children to wash their hands regularly to avoid infection.
