Tips for a good night's sleep for your child in hot weather

1. Choose cotton bedding: Cotton sheets, sleeping bags and pajamas are much more airy and cool than synthetic materials.

2. Dress your child lightly: Especially with babies, just a diaper may be enough. Don't overdo it with clothing to avoid overheating.

3. Give your child a lukewarm shower or bath: A lukewarm shower or bath before bedtime can help lower body temperature and relax.

4. Create a breeze: Open two windows or doors opposite each other to create a breeze and circulate the air. However, do this only when the sun is gone and the outside air is cooler.

5. Use cooling elements: Place a cooling element from the freezer wrapped in a cloth with your child in bed. Ice-cold cherry pit pillows or cool packs can also provide relief.

6. Ensure adequate fluid intake: Encourage your child to drink enough during the day to prevent dehydration. This can help prevent thirst at night and prevent headaches.

7. Use cooling mats: Cooling mats for pets can also be placed under the crib sheet to provide additional cooling.

8. Cool favorite stuffed toys: Put your child's favorite stuffed toy in the freezer before bedtime to make it nice and cool before putting it to bed with your child.

With these tips, you can ensure that your child can sleep comfortably and well even during hot weather.
