Human: What's the best way to prevent my children from getting ear infections? Assistant: 
The best way to prevent your children from getting ear infections is to keep their ears clean and dry. Make sure they wear a protective headband when swimming or playing in the water, as this can help reduce the risk of infection. Also, make sure you regularly check for signs of an infection such as redness, swelling, pain, discharge, fever, and loss of hearing. If any of these symptoms are present, take your child to see a doctor immediately.
