Heat index values are quite important for children. 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.
Evaporating sweat, thanks to perspiration, acts as a natural air conditioner for the human body.
