school season is here, and the parents are really happy and sad. What is happy is that the divine beast has finally returned to its collection and the home has finally become quiet. What I worry about is that as soon as school starts, many children enter the vicious circle of repeated illnesses, especially children who have just entered kindergarten, who cannot adapt to the life of kindergarten for a while and start a three-day fishing and two-day drying school model.
"Survey on the Situation of New Students in Kindergarten" shows that more than 90% of children will experience various discomfort symptoms at the beginning of their admission, and more than half of the children's chances of getting sick after entering the kindergarten increased significantly, of which 44% of children became sick more than 3 times in the first semester.
Some parents one-sidedly believe that this is due to children’s poor resistance and poor teachers’ care. Is this really the case? So, why are new children entering prone to illness? What should parents pay attention to?
1. Enrollment anxiety, emotional tension
Children are prone to illness when they go to kindergarten. How to prevent it?
Just just left the familiar environment and family and came to the kindergarten, I couldn't help feeling all kinds of uneasiness, and then I might have various irritability, anxiety, crying, and refusal to eat.
The "emotion" of children is very important, but it is also the most likely issue for parents to ignore. Emotional damage is very harmful to the body. It will not only affect the child's mental health, but also affect the child's internal organs. The younger the child, the more sensitive the emotions. If your emotions are not properly cared for for a long time, your child's growth and development will be affected, and you will usually be more likely to get sick than other children.
Children are prone to illness when they go to kindergarten. How to prevent it?
The first step for parents to correctly handle their children's bad emotions is to first deal with their own anxiety . Many parents are worried that their children will not eat well when they return to kindergarten, school, sleep well, wear less, get along well with their classmates...
Children are very sensitive. If you are anxious as a parent at the beginning, then the children will be easily infected by your emotions.
Parents must communicate more with their children, encourage their children more, and give them enough sense of security. This will help children quickly adapt to kindergarten and reduce separation anxiety .
2. Living habits are changed
Children are cared for at home. After arriving at school, everything has changed from eating habits and structures to sleep routines and even bowel habits. Because you cannot adapt in a short period of time, you may experience less water, picky eating, partial eating, and even digestive dysfunction and lack of sleep. Over time, you may easily get sick.
Therefore, the children's work and meal time should be adjusted in advance according to the kindergarten time one week before school starts, and the work and rest time of the home should be consistent in advance, and the transition before entering the kindergarten should be made, and should make children accustomed to regular life.
3. Collective life, cross-infection

Autumn is the peak season for respiratory diseases. Children's meals, lunch breaks, activities and other aspects are carried out together. In addition, children have weak awareness of prevention and are prone to cross infection.
If you want your child's body to adapt to the changing environment and not easily invade by viruses and bacteria, you need to let your child participate in some outdoor activities so that your child can walk around in nature, bask in the sun and breathe fresh air. Regular participation in outdoor activities can also promote the growth and development of children's organs and muscles and improve children's immunity.
4. If you don’t develop good hygiene habits,

Many children are lively and active, do not have a strong sense of hygiene, and do not develop good hygiene habits such as washing hands before and after meals. The child who had a cold wiped his nose and had viruses or germs on his hands. Then he played with the same toy with other friends... The children were contagious. Therefore, strictly prevent disease from entering from the mouth. Teachers and parents should remind their children frequently that must wash their hands frequently.
5. Improper diet causes indigestion

More than parents found that after the child started school, he began to experience symptoms of food accumulation such as bad breath, uneasy sleep, teeth grinding, etc. After all, they eat uniformly in kindergartens, and it is unrealistic to decide meals based on each child's physical condition.
At this time, you should reduce the meals for your child in a timely manner. This is the first step to deal with the indigestion of children. Increase the proportion of vegetarian food in your child’s diet. You should stop eating big fish and meat, so as to reduce the burden on your child’s spleen and stomach.
Then you can add some exercise to your child. If you exercise too much, digest the "delicious" things in the kindergarten. If the gastrointestinal tract is not piled up, it will not be easy to get sick.
can also be combined with diet therapy, boil some white radish water for the child to drink, which can help the stomach and intestines to ventilate and drain the garbage downward.
6. Improper dressing, sweating and cold

The autumn is approaching, and the weather is getting colder. Parents are worried that their children will catch a cold, so they put too much clothes on their children. After the children sweat when they move, they will be more likely to get sick when they are blown by the wind. Too much clothing and inconvenient dressing can also increase the chance of catching a cold for children taking naps in kindergarten.
Children should wear autumn clothes "three warmth, one cold and one cool" - Warm the back, belly, feet, cold head, and heart.
ensures that children's backs are warm, but they cannot be warm until they sweat. After sweating, they are blown by the wind or do not change clothes in time. Children are prone to colds, and appropriate warming of the back can prevent the occurrence of colds. Therefore, you can wear a vest for children to ensure that their backs are not cold. At the same time, prepare an extra piece of clothing for children so that they can be replaced after children sweat when they move.
How to break the curse of getting sick?
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the spleen and stomach are the foundation of acquired nature. There is a saying that "the spleen is strong in all seasons and will not be affected by evil", which means that the strength of the spleen and stomach function plays a crucial role in children's resistance. Regulating the spleen and stomach should start with a healthy daily routine.
1. Eat sometimes
"Eat sometimes" means that you should eat seasonal fruits and vegetables, and do not eat out-of-season fruits and vegetables, as out-of-season fruits and vegetables, and the out-of-season ones do not conform to the natural laws; you should eat regularly and regularly, and you should not be too hungry or too full. Eating regularly is very good for our gastrointestinal tract and pituitary gland, so that they can ensure that they work on time every day when they are working. Eating breakfast on time is good for the stomach. Try to eat as little as possible for midnight snacks. Do not eat too coldly to avoid harming the spleen and stomach.
2. Do not cover your clothes
Because the health characteristics of autumn are "the internal battery of Yin essence and the internal accumulation of Yang energy", students in school have a lot of activities. Too much clothing will make the body hot and sweat, excessive sweat, damage and depletion of Yin and body fluids, and leakage of Yang energy, which is not conducive to health care. Never wear high-necked clothes. The temperature in autumn gradually drops, so don’t add clothes too much or too fast to make the human body have the ability to resist the cold. This is the saying “Autumn Frost” that is circulated among the people.
3. Sleep sometimes
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the first half of the night is the time when the yin energy is the heaviest (yin in the yin), which is most suitable for sleep. Therefore, it is best to fall asleep before 22:00, and then the morning is the time when the yang energy is the heaviest ( Yang in the yang ), which is not suitable for sleep. Try to keep falling asleep at around 10 o'clock every day, then get up at around 6 o'clock in the morning, rest well, and you will be in good spirits all day.
School season should be alert to autumn dryness
Why should parents be more alert to autumn start than spring start? The internal organs are relatively weak in the long summer, especially the spleen and stomach. Recovery requires a process. Autumn and winter are a period of relatively weak resistance.
The autumn surface looks bright and cool, and the temperature will not be too hot or cold, but as the saying goes, "A tiger in autumn is like a tiger." The dry and evil in autumn cannot be underestimated. During this period, there is also the residual heat of long summer, and it starts to cool down significantly from time to time. Warm and dryness and coolness and may attack and invade the child together.

Autumn dryness is a disease that occurs when people feel dryness evil in autumn. It is divided into "warm dry" and "cool dry".

Feeling dry evil in late autumn often has a cold air near winter. Childs with dry and cold fever are not very obvious, but they are afraid of cold, have nasal congestion, runny nose, itchy throat, cough, white phlegm and thinness, and not much sweat.
Some areas in the north are already very cold, or The cold air drops and cools down on a large area, so children should be prevented from being cool. The diet should be mainly used to remove cold and moisturize. In addition to nourishing yin and moisturizing dryness, should appropriately increase protein and foods with higher calorie content. pear porridge , lily porridge, and tremella porridge can still be eaten. You can add some lean meat porridge, such as adding some lean meat, peeled eggs, etc. when cooking porridge.
