Therefore, the correct way to feel the back of the child’s neck, if warm and dry, it means that the clothes are wearing the right.
During the cold season, children should not wear too much clothing. Most parents are afraid of freezing their children and dress them thickly once winter comes. In fact, it is easy for children to get sick when they are overdressed.
