Simple steps to listening to lungs.
Assessment of your lungs is important and as a Firefighter we do it daily. 
It's helpful to know health lungs from unhealthy. 
In my video I described / demonstrated where to listen and below I'll link a video on lungs that are unhealthy. 
You'll need a stethoscope to do this but I feel it's worth being proactive and knowledgeable than guessing your child's health or other loved ones. 
Below I'll also link my stethoscope I purchased. 

auscultation of the respiratory system - anterior which is the chest side and posterior the back side.

This link will demonstrate the sounds of stridor, crackles and not normally healthy signs -
