They need to know that when they breathe, they are taking in fresh air, which is oxygen and sending out bad air, which is carbon dioxide.

If they stay in a room with all the doors and windows locked, there will not be means for fresh air to come into the room, therefore, the children will keep breathing the bad air they breathed out. That can make them sick.
