Are there ways to treat my toddler’s fever without using medication?

If your toddler has a slight fever, there are a number of measures you can take to keep it under control.
  • Move your toddler to a cool environment.
  • Give your toddler cool drinks. This will also prevent dehydration.
  • Remove excess clothing.
