I believe that rubbing alcohol should be for cleaning certain wounds, such as helping to relieve the itch of mosquito bites, etc. I would be careful about putting it on a toddler without checking with a medical person. I find that your neighbor Pharmacist will be helpful in ansewring a lot of non-threatening basic health questions. If the child had a cut, the alcohol is a powerful disinfectant and can be used to clean wounds, but otherwise no. It does nothing to the child. However, if someone has an open cut that needs cleaning, you should use hydrogen peroxide instead because it stores easier, has no odor, and is a lot less painful on contact to open skin! Alcohol on an open cut can hurt quite a bit!
