Pregnancy and childbirth, pregnancy calendar, birth of the child, development of the child, health of children.

Familiar picture: in the middle of a room your son jumps up from pleasure ("On the fads, sanki or skis!"), and you perplexed consider MAINtenance of a case with children's clothes ("As better, more warmly?"). You are disturbed by one important question: "Why last time though so heat has been dressed - three sweaters, two panties, kurtochka and a fur cap, and all the same the child was ill with cold?"

The children's organism on the anatomo-physiological features essentially differs from an organism of the adult. The less your kid, the the big requirements should be put forward to its clothes in the winter.

The skin of the kid is more thin, more gentle, it more richly blood vessels, potovymi and sebaceous glands. The system of thermoregulation of the child also is still imperfect: teplootdacha it is more expressed because of feature of a structure of a skin, and also a parity between the area of a surface of a body and its weight. If at the adult person on 1 kg of weight it is necessary 221 square centimetre of a surface of a body, at the six-summer child - 456, and ten years' - 423. The big area of a skin at smaller weight of a body causes the raised cooling in the winter. More thin epitely and the significant amount of blood which proceeds in skin layers, also promotes fast cooling of a children's organism. Moreover and blood circulation at the kid occurs more intensively, than at the adult that causes fast cooling. If at us in a skin proceeds 1/3 all blood, at children - half and even 2/3 all its weights. Duration of blood circulation of all volume of blood at the adult makes 33 seconds, and at the three-year child - 15.

Considering these features, remember, that the children's clothes during the winter period should be more heat-shielding, than at the adult, completely answer age and the sizes of parts of a body of the kid.

It is not desirable to dress to the child simultaneously some the top shirts, two trousers, etc. the Clothes should be warm, but not heavy, free, but not too spacious. Linen pick up the natural: from bajki, a flannel or flax.

Harmfully too warm to wrap up a head and a neck of the child. On a neck there pass the big blood vessels of an artery and a vein. From superfluous heat they extend, to a neck and a head pritekaet there is more than blood, but this inflow occurs at the expense of its outflow from feet, hands and internal bodies. Such overheat of one part of a body, and cooling of others is the extremely harmful. Children whom constantly too warm a neck warm scarfs, are ill anginami, a flu is more often. Therefore, if only there is no strong cold wind, do not lift to the kid a collar of a coat and do not fasten its scarf. From headdresses woollen hats of type of "ski" are most convenient.

Even in strong frosts in any case do not close to the child a scarf or a scarf a mouth. When at the kid normal nasal breath, on a cold he will breathe as it is necessary. If the child breathes a mouth, the scarf or a scarf quickly become damp, cold, and air at a breath, will be humidified too, and it can lead to cold. Before an exit on fresh air clean to the kid a nouse and in a pocket do not forget to put nosovichok!

And so, in the winter the warm linen, warm easy clothes (from shtapelja, velveteen or a soft woollen fabric), a coat or a jacket with top impenetrable a moisture and a wind is necessary for the kid. Dress the child warmly, but it is not excessive, that to it it was convenient and easy. The clothes of dark shades which absorb the greatest quantity of a sunlight in the winter will be more rational.

If the son or the daughter like to skate or skis, do not put on them during such walks of a coat. It heavy, is badly aired, therefore the child quickly sweats. For winter sports are necessary: warm linen, a woollen ski suit, a jacket.
