Oh goodness me, YES. This adds moisture to the lungs and the heat helps break up the congestion that your body is trying to expel by coughing. Make sure not to get the steam too hot or you can do more damage than good.

A short sauna could be beneficial, if you don't have a fever. However, do not use a communal sauna if you are sick.

How long should you take a sauna?

There is no age limit. I was a baby when I was first time in sauna, so I would guess when the baby is old enough to be on the sandbox on the playground and as long as the heat in the sauna is not really high and someone is supervising the small child, it's okay. The time spent should be very limited as the stress put on the child's circulatory system is high.
