The flight attendant shared a life hack on how to calm down a child on the plane
Parents who plan to travel with small children will find it useful to learn a life hack that will help calm a crying baby on an airplane. To implement it, you only need two small items that can be found with the flight attendants.
Sierra Mist, a flight attendant with many years of experience, shared this tip on her YouTube channel. She recommends using a paper towel and hot water to ease your child's discomfort during the flight.
To do this, ask the flight attendant for a glass of hot water and a napkin or paper towel. After that, moisten the napkin in water, wait a few seconds, and place it near the child's ear.
According to Sierra, children's crying during a flight is often related to their sensitivity to pressure changes. Discomfort can lead to hysteria in children who are not used to flying.
This life hack can also help adults suffering from colds or sinusitis. However, you should make sure that the paper is not too hot, otherwise you or your child will feel even more uncomfortable.
Netizens noted the usefulness of Sierra's advice and shared their own life hacks.
