Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.
