Multiple Causes: There are many reasons for kids to get itchy skin. Most common is simply dry skin which can be worsened by cold weather and dehydration. Another cause is contact dermatitis, an allergy to things like poison ivy. If there is a rash and nasal congestion whole body allergies might be suspected. This could be from a reaction to foods and molds.Begin by using a moisturizer regularly. Can help a lot.

Many causes: If your child has itchy skin and no rashes, it may just be dry skin, a common occurrence during the winter months. Try applying thick moisturizer twice a day such as eucerin calming cream, lubriderm, cetaphil, or vanicream. If you child still complains of itching or has a rash consult your child's doctor.
