Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
