Children in saunas?

I’ve read that children use saunas with their families in the Nordic countries. I’m in the US and couldn’t imagine anyone here bringing their kids into a sauna. However, my new home has a sauna and I would love to bring my kids in with me! I love the sauna so much and I know i could use it way more if my toddler and baby could come in with me. Can anyone tell me how they include children? Thanks!

New house, old sauna question

I bought a new home that has been under renovation for 2 years. The home was built in 1999 and has a sauna that was built at the same time. We finished the renovation and couldn’t get the sauna heater to turn on. I was about to order a new heater but had the electricians look at it one more time and they got it working. It’s a Helo sauna. I don’t know what was wrong with it as the contractor asked the electricians to fix it and I haven’t spoken with either of them. The house we bought hadn’t been lived in for 2 years prior to starting renovation, so I know the sauna hadn’t been used in at least 4 or maybe more years. Is there anything I need to do to make sure the heater is safe to use? I absolutely love saunas and am so excited to have one in my home, but I know nothing about sauna maintenance. Thanks!!
