Will the heat generated be too hot for a toddler?

Good question. I don't think so but would consider it a judgement call on the parents part. I don't have children but did use this product with my niece and nephew. They are 4 and 8. They loved them. The heat generated is hot but not scolding by any means.

Just checked the package and it states they should not be used on infants so toddlers should be okay or they would have put a warning on the label. If it is too hot for them they can communicate that to you. So my opinion is they are fine for toddlers as long as they are being well supervised.

The items I received were dated and rock hard. I would recommend going to SAMs or Walmart. They are fresh and cheaper . Not sure I would give to a toddler unless wrapped in towel/blanket. Not direct to skin.

DO NOT USE ON TODDLERS unsupervised! and seniors with thin more fragile skin. If you are thinking about using them for a age group with thin or tender skin like a toddler or senior, put them in a Pot Holder pouch, this reduces chances of burning, check often, if the skin turns pink, remove as the product needs more padding. It's to hot for that person with out more padding. Each of the different products they make rise to a different heat level. The large 18 hr one reaches up to 140 degrees, and can blister unprotected skin. I use the small hand ones, but I still put them in a Pot Holder pouch. Which in turn I pin in place over the area of my lumbar that hurts, and I can't get fixed. It's like having a 24 hr heating pad. If I didn't use the Hot Hands I would not be mobile, as it reduces the pain level. The smaller hand size do not get as hot as the larger ones. Not tried the ones for feet or that stick to your skin. As a senior, my skin is fragile, so I steer clear of anything that adheres to my skin. Hope my experience with Hot Hands has helped answer your questions. They are safe to use, read the directions though. Be aware of the fragility of the skin of the person who is using them. I can handle the small ones with out padding for a short while with my hands, but to put it on the more tender skin of my back, I use the Pot Holder to mute the heat to a lower level, which makes it just like low on a heating pad that you plug in. The key is the person's skin fragility, because even on low a plug in heating pad can burn a person. Which is why the newer ones have a 2 hr timer in them.If they are going into mittens, you could wrap them in some thing like a wash cloth to mute the amount of heat. Keep checking at area, if it is pink it is going into the burn phase.

no this material is suitable for insulation of hot pipis where it would not be subjected to handeling by a toddler.

My son definately gets hot in this, but I usually just have him in a onsie and try not to be out I. The 90 degree weather. My so. Is hot blooded so I also put an ice pack between him and I.

Not hot at all!! You can touch it and hardly feel any heat. Safe if kids around.

Yes, the suit can get a little hot. I put my daughter in the suit with just a diaper. Sometimes just a cotton onesie. She isn't too hot that way and sleeps great.

I don't believe they get hot. My 2 and 4 yr old have never mentioned it being that way

Yes, however I'd use it at 300 Degrees because kids hair is a little more susceptible to damage, it's thinner in most kids. That said, because this iron gets VERY hot I would not let her use it without supervision. It's very easy to burn yourself or random objects in the bathroom if not paying attention. :-)

We have the sand-colored R120, live in East TN Rainforest clime. My 25m old has been using the seat since she was 9m, and is still RF. She is tall for her age. Never had an overheating issue, and it gets to 100 degrees F about 7-10 days of the summer each year.

Yes. You can also use a low heat pad in colder temperature. Some of soft blanket for them to huddle together to build up their own body heat. Just like you under a blanket. Thanks for taking care of the little ones

I don't think so, at least not any hotter then a stroller, bed or any other place you would put an infant. It has a very soft cover, and my grandson also had a head and side support insert because he's so small. He seemed very comfortable in it when it was 85+ degrees with no air conditioning.

We live in Missouri. My baby never seemed to be bothered by the heat. The only thing that really bothered here are the shoulder strap pads. But I believe the most current version has removable pads so that should no longer be an issue.

I don't find this gets excessively hot to the touch at all. Yes, it does get toasty, but I can touch the heater and not feel burnt. Again, with small children go ahead and put it up on something so they can't get close to it if you are worried. My pets also have no problem with this, they lay in front, although they aren't laying right up against it.

I use it in an air conditioned home so it's hard to say but I don't think it's too warm. My son has never felt hot while in it and that is using it with full pjs.

Hot enough to curl your hair but not so hot that you can't handle them safely. I wouldn't advise young children to play with them. There is a metal bar that runs through the heating system on which the curlers rest to heat up which will be hot enough that you won't want to touch it. Hope that helps!

It is not really warm.it is more wind breaker with a little fleece inside.so baby wont sweat .

Not in our experience. It's no hotter than the basic level of heat associated with a car seat (which, actually, is not inconsiderable. It's not like they are designed to allow airflow.). The piddle pad has a soft fabric on the top, so we've never had her get more sweaty on the piddle pad part than anywhere else in the carseat.

If you're going to be using it in spring/summer, I'd recommend buying the cotton suit instead of the microfleece. Hands and feet are uncovered, so with a light onesie or just a diaper underneath, baby shouldn't be at risk of overheating.
