Kids often lack the knowledge about the necessity to take breaks and consume liquids. Thirst, as a late symptom of dehydration, necessitates the maintenance of hydration, particularly during enduring physical activities.
Evaporating sweat, thanks to perspiration, acts as a natural air conditioner for the human body.
