Keep babies hydrated and clean to reduce irritation.
Avoid smoky areas entirely and encourage eco-friendly, cracker-free celebrations. The festival season is meant for joy and celebration, but it shouldn’t come at the cost of babies’ health. Supporting cleaner, quieter celebrations protects not just the environment but also ensures healthier lungs for the next generation. As Dr Ankush Garg emphasises, “Protecting clean air ensures a joyful festival and healthier lungs for children.”
