Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. With excessive moisture in the atmosphere, the effectiveness of the evaporation process is decreased, causing the body to cool down less efficiently, leading to a sensation of overheating.
