Fortify Your Body Against Toxic Air: A Lifesaving Guide

Imagine the air outside can sometimes have invisible yucky stuff in it, like tiny dust and pollutions.

Breathing too much of this can make you sick.

This guide tells you how to be safe.

First, try not to play or run outside when the sun is hottest, usually between 11 AM and 4 PM, because the air can be extra dirty then.

Always ask a grown-up to check if the air is okay to play in.

If the air is really bad, it's best to stay inside.

When you do go out, wearing a special mask, like an N95, is like wearing a superhero cape for your nose and mouth, stopping most of the bad stuff.

Inside your house, especially in your bedroom, having a special fan called a HEPA purifier helps clean the air you breathe while you sleep.

Also, try not to burn things like incense or candles indoors, and don't sweep with a dry broom, as this can stir up dust.
