Question: what is the most accurate way to take a 4 year olds temperature?
Answer: Digital thermometers are used for these temperature-taking methods: rectal (in the bottom) — most accurate method for children under 3 years old. oral (in the mouth) — best for kids 4–5 years or older who can cooperate. axillary (under the arm) — the least accurate digital thermometer, but good for a first check.
