The Most Accurate Way to Take Your Child's Temperature? Find Out! Kids' Health Family Health

It’s important to get an accurate read of your child’s temperature when he or she is sick. I know this is no easy task. First, kids aren’t a fan of the process. Second, there are a lot of thermometers on the market. They range from all kinds of bells and whistles to the pretty simple, old-fashioned style. 

I personally think digital thermometers are easiest to read, and anything to help make life a little easier for parents is a good thing. Also, I only recommend oral or rectal thermometers. I know kids aren’t a fan of either, but they really are the most accurate.
