Expert's advice: Cold weather is increasing, do not take medicine indiscriminately if you have a cold As the country, including Kathmandu, has started to experience extreme cold, experts have suggested not to buy medicine if you have a cold this season. Children and senior citizens especially need more care during the winter season. Experts have urged people to take necessary precautions, saying that children are more likely to suffer from respiratory problems, colds, throat infections, stomach aches, etc. during the winter season. Pediatrician Dr. Ramhari Chapagain of Kanti Children's Hospital says that respiratory problems, pneumonia, and 'cold diarrhea' (cold-related diarrhea) are more common during the winter. 'Nutritious food is needed to protect children from colds. Although children need nutritious food at any time, they need it more during winter than at other times.

6 mistakes parents should not make when teaching children to speak
What parent doesn't want to hear their child speak as soon as possible? But in the desire to teach their child to speak quickly, parents make some mistakes. This slows down the child's speech development. Therefore, it is important to take care of every little thing during this time. Because at this time, whatever the child sees, it adopts or learns the same habit.
Therefore, parents should pay special attention to some mistakes during the child's speech development. Otherwise, it may hinder the child's speech development.
6 things to keep in mind during child's speech development
Not having speech therapy
Many parents use speech therapy to help their child learn to speak faster. But speech therapy should not be done to the child without the doctor's advice. Because there can be many other reasons why a child speaks slowly. Therefore, speech therapy should be done only after diagnosing the problem of slow speech by examining the doctor. If speech therapy is given without knowing what the problem is, it may cause other problems later.
Another mistake parents make is comparing their child's development with others. Also, every child's development process is different. In such a situation, unnecessary stress can cause problems for both parents and children.
Do not talk to the child
Another biggest mistake of parents is not communicating with their children. If the parents do not talk to the child, it can hinder the speech development of the child. Because children often learn language by listening to their parents, it is important to include them in the conversation. It is necessary to regularly help the child to learn to read, to teach daily tasks, to understand and use words.
Trying to overcorrect
Another mistake is correcting too much while the child is speaking. Therefore, you should avoid correcting the speech of the child. This does not mean that they should not be corrected, but rather than correcting their mistakes, attention should be paid to teaching them how to speak correctly.
Obstruction or biting habit in everything can cause problems for the child. For example, the fear of not being able to speak may reduce or stop speaking. Instead, parents should repeat everything the child says correctly and encourage his efforts.
Screen time
Screen time should be controlled to develop the child's speech. It is useful to show things related to knowledge and education. But the excessive habit of screen time can harm the child's mental health. It can make a child who speaks instead of speaking, not speaking.
Keeping with the same age
Nowadays, children are not kept with the same age because they fight and get dirty. This is another mistake of parents. Parents should allow the child to spend time with children of his own age. Because he also learns to speak and move forward by seeing other children. This automatically increases the child's ability to take words and understand them.
Send to Monteswari
Sending the child to Monteshwari is a better option than keeping the child at home. It helps the child learn new words, understand, and socialize with other children. But if the child is more than three years old but has not learned to speak, he should be examined by a doctor. Because sometimes he may not speak due to some deficiency in his body.
