Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.

If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
