Children often do not understand the need to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - therefore, it is essential to stay hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. When relative humidity increases, the body's capacity to evaporate heat decreases, leading to a heightened sense of warmth. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
