Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
