Australian summers are filled with fun in the sun and long, hot days.
For kids, these school-free stretches bring a sense of freedom, fully embraced with bike rides, swimming and activities that help them delay bedtime just a little longer.
Unfortunately, the other reality of Aussie summers is that they are getting hotter, and higher temperatures have associated health and safety risks, including dehydration and heat-related illnesses, particularly for babies and kids.
"In hot weather, young kids and babies overheat and dehydrate more easily than adults and can become seriously unwell quickly," Dr Cybele Dey, a Paediatrician and Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist at the Children's Hospital at Westmead, told Mamamia.
