CLOTHING COVERAGE If you can see the sun, the sun can see you! Fabrics must be of a thick enough weave to block out sunlight. Kids, particularly babies, are prone to overheating, so make sure the material is breathable and not too tight fitting. Bathing body suits, t-shirts, and longer swimming trunks are a must. We wish schools | would ban speedos. Bikinis are not an option. Hats: We know it's a constant struggle to keep that hat on, but one day your children will thank you. Caps are not ideal (but are, admittedly, better than nothing). Get your children used to wearing hats with a brim on them. Hats with the CANSA label of approval on them are best. Safe times: Try to avoid being out in the sun between 10am and 2pm. This is when UV is at its highest strength. If you’re going to be chilling by the pool, on the beach, or hiking, then do so in the early morning or late afternoon.

CONVENIENCE IS KEY Keep hats and sunglasses at the front door. Have sunscreen stashed everywhere. Seeing sunscreen is a visual reminder to put it on. If you can't find it, you’re not going to put it on. BE A MODEL PARENT Children learn by example. You can’t expect them to do anything you wouldn't do. Make sure they get to see you putting on sunscreen every day. They will learn good habits from you. Partake safely in all the outdoor activities that summer has to offer and have family fun in the sun,
