Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat.
