Hi,

Wen it's normal fever dont worry.
Of course you can give your child lots of water and vitamin c like amla or lemon in juice forms,Make sure to buy them this sanitizer gels to keep away from germs .This is what the suggestions given to our school students in dubai.I work in Our own indian school as a French teacher.Hope this information will help u and my son is also in Kg2 ,

Iam sending him to school.

Train your child with hand sanitisers etc and also keep children away from crowded places specially malls, and everything will be all right.

HI,
As mentioned in earlier post train your child on using the hand sanitisers. I have a 3 yr old daughter and ever since i've heard of swine flu spread in India i had started using dettol hand sanitisers for her. Moreover i would suggest if your kids are very smal do not leave them in the play areas in Malls especailly the pool of balls. I've always had a bad experience when ever i left my lil one to play in these play areas. She has always fell ill the next day. May be its because of her low immune system.
But eversince i've kept her away from those play areas and take only for certain rides in the play section. I would also also suggest you get your kid vaccinated for the normal flu after consulting the pediatrition of course.
Rest maintain general hygiene and consume lots of fruits and vegetables :)....
