What should children pay attention to when taking a bath?

Parents should pay attention to the water temperature, bathing time, bathing method and the use of toiletries when bathing their children, so as not to damage their skin and cause their children to catch a cold. First of all, pay attention to the water temperature and indoor temperature when bathing children. If the temperature is too low, the child will catch a cold. Therefore, the water temperature for bathing children should be 38-40℃, and the indoor temperature should also be kept at a suitable temperature, 24-30℃ is appropriate. Secondly, parents should not bathe their children for too long, not more than 10 minutes, so as not to wash off the oil on the skin surface and damage the skin health. When bathing children, don't use shower gel or soap with strong detergency, but use bath products such as baby shower gel. Children bathe frequently in summer, so it is not necessary to use bath products every time. Just wash the skin with warm water. In addition, parents should be gentle when bathing their children. Don't rub the child's skin hard, but also pay attention to protect the child's nose, mouth and ears to prevent the child's ears and nose from getting water. Parents should slowly wash the child's face down, and at the same time hold the child's neck with their hands so that the child's head is above the water. It is best to take a bath after defecation, or arrange a bath between breastfeeding. At this time, the child's interest in taking a bath is high. Precautions for children's bathing are as follows:

1, frequency: frequent bathing will reduce the moisture content of children's skin and make it drier and drier. It is recommended that children take a bath 2-3 times a week or once every other day. The frequency of bathing can also be appropriately increased according to seasonal changes and children's activity;

2. Room temperature: 26-28℃ is appropriate;

3. Water temperature: in the neonatal period, the water temperature is kept at 38-40℃; 1-2 years old, the water temperature is about 37℃, so you can test the water temperature with your wrist, preferably neither too hot nor too cold.
