Researchers suggest a set of tips to keep children comfortable and safe when outside in cold weather:

- The child wears many layers so that if one layer is wet, the child can remove it and keep the moisture away from his body.

Use woolen clothes instead of cotton clothes that isolate the body from moisture.

Wearing warm shoes and gloves is necessary because the limbs are more susceptible to frost, in addition to making sure to cover the ears and nose and wearing a hat to prevent significant heat loss from the head.

- Parents should return their children inside from time to time and change wet clothes immediately.
