While it’s great to have fun, it’s also important to stay warm in cold temperatures. Cold can mean your child risks frostbite and hypothermia.
Here are some cold weather safety tips
to help keep your
children safe from
frostbite and hypothermia:
- Wear appropriate clothing (i.e. layers, fleece, wool)
- Bring children inside periodically to warm up
- Make sure boots are not too tight
- Have them wear a hat and/or ski mask to cover extremities (i.e. ears, nose)
- Keep their clothes dry
- Offer them a hot beverage after they come inside
If frostbite or hypothermia does occur, seek medical
attention immediately! If the affected area is not treated in a timely manner
your child may lose a limb … or worse!
