Dress infants and children warmly for outdoor activities. Several thin layers will keep them dry and warm. Always remember warm boots, gloves/mittens, and a hat. The rule of thumb for older babies and young children is to dress them in one more layer.
Rest & hydrate. Fever after meds is ok if hydrated and alert. Call office if fever >100.4°F for 5+ days, trouble breathing, dehydration, or worsening. Go to ER if infant <28 days has fever >100.4°F (rectal) or child is unresponsive/distressed.
