What Happens to a Body That Is Too Hot, and How Can You Help?

What Crafty Clover says in this video

Intro

Hi there, curious minds! I'm Crafty Clover! Let's discover something amazing. What happens to a body that is too hot, and how can you help?

The Big Idea

When you get too hot, your body sweats and your heart works harder! If you cannot cool down, you may feel dizzy, sick, or very tired. Heat can be serious, so always tell a grown-up.

Body Warning Signs

Step one: warning signs. A hot body sweats, and the heart pumps faster to move heat to the skin. If it is too much, you might feel dizzy, sick, or very tired.

Cool Down Fast

Step two: cool down. Move to the shade, rest, and sip water. A cool, damp cloth on your neck or arms can help too.

Tell a Grown-up

Step three: tell a grown-up. Always tell a grown-up if you feel too hot, in the desert or at home. Never ignore warning signs, because heat can be serious.

A Closer Look

Let's take a closer look! First, get into the shade. Second, sip water. Third, rest until you feel better. And always tell a grown-up. That is the safe plan.

Quick Facts

Quick facts! Babies, older people, and pets are extra sensitive to heat. Never leave a person or a pet in a parked car. Light, loose clothes and a hat help you stay cooler. If someone seems very sick from heat, a grown-up should call for help right away.

Think Like a Scientist

Now, think like a scientist! Create a poster with three steps for a hot day. Get into shade, sip water, and tell a grown-up. Decorate it with drawings. Put it on the fridge.
