At this stage, since your child mingles with a lot of other kids in school, there's a possibility she may catch lice from some other kid's hair.

To avoid getting infected with head lice, keep your child’s hair short and manageable, especially when the weather is hot and humid. Keep checking your kid’s hair at least once every week. In case of infestation of head lice, use a medicated shampoo and comb out all the lice.

However, if your little one is having long hair and refuses to budge for a short one, you just need to be a little more careful with the child’s hair. Lice can be disturbing. Many times it leads to severe infection in the scalp and creates havoc. Especially, for a child of this age, lice should be taken rather more seriously, because kids are themselves not very careful. Ensure that you keep a check on the child’s habits. Wash the hair every alternate day and dry it completely. Use good medicated shampoos if you spot even a single lice. And if you see small rashes and boils in the scalp, visit a dermatologist and seek medical advice immediately.

Choosing the Right Term Insurance for Your Financial Goals

Term life insurance offers a cost-effective way to secure your family's financial future by providing coverage for a specified period. A ₹1 crore term insurance policy is a popular choice in India, providing significant coverage to secure your loved ones' financial security. Premiums for such policies are typically reasonable, particularly when obtained at a young age and in good health. Online term calculators can help you determine the premium amount. These calculators use age, health, policy duration, and coverage quantity parameters to predict the premium.

When you decide to buy life insurance, you must first consider your financial needs and commitments. Consider ongoing debts, potential educational fees for children, and other long-term financial objectives. Selecting the correct term insurance coverage protects your family's financial well-being and provides you and your loved ones peace of mind.
