As explained below.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Protective measures remains the same for children as well. I would advice you to maintain hygiene at home, regular cleaning and dusting.
- Regular hand washing or using hand sanitizer helps.
- If anyone in the home is sick, staying away from the kids or using a mask when taking care of them.
- Avoid going out in crowded places.
- If work from home option is available using that would be best.
- Avoid cold items such as ice cream, juices and chocolates.
- Steam inhalation with a drop of eucalyptus oil helps.
- Feed them with fruits rich in vitamin C such as orange or mosambi.

I hope this helps. Please feel free to discuss further.
