celebrate a colourful, chemical-free holi with your toddler

With the festival of colours right around the corner, parents all over the country have surely got their hands full. There are sweets to prepare, colours to buy and outgrown clothes to bring out from deep storage for kids. However, none of these tasks is as important as ensuring your toddler enjoys a safe and sound Holi. It is useless to deny toddlers — the most restless people of all — the fun of all the colours and water spraying around. However, there are certain measures you can adopt to safeguard your kid against the risks this festival presents.

Infants are comparatively easy to take care of. Don’t desert your infant to be a part of festivities; they need a familiar face around them at all times. It is better to take turns with your spouse to supervise him and keep him away from festivities. Keep the exposure to colours to a bare minimum, perhaps a tika on the forehead. As an added precaution, you can dress them in organic kids clothes to ensure the chemicals from colours don’t come in contact with their sensitive skin.

Toddlers present a much greater problem, however, since they are sure to get their hands and most of their body deeply coated in multiple layers of colours. It is no secret that Holi colours contain chemicals that can cause all kinds of diseases, ranging from eye allergy and fever to eczema, to name a few. A safety measure parents often adopt is giving their toddlers an oil massage before sending him off to celebrate. Also having the lad lover their head with Organic Cotton Scarf helps.

Given how sensitive the skin of kids is, and how prone to those harmful chemicals, an additional safety measure parents should take is taking care of kids’ clothes. Rather than making the most of old, useless clothes, it is better to use organic unisex kids clothes. Made of cotton grown without any chemical fertilizers or pesticides, these clothes act as a protective layer between a kid’s skin and harmful colours.
