REMEMBER ..... SAFETY FIRST ! Never ever ever leave children unattended or unsupervised in or near water. Always make sure there is a competent grown up in charge. Always follow the safety instructions that come with swimming accessories. Don't take chances.

Nowadays, things are greatly improved compared to the 70's and 80's. We're keeping the kids covered up, we're keeping them out of the sun in the hottest part of the day, and we're using plenty of factor 50. Schools are playing their part too by providing shade and establishing sun care procedures. It's all good.

Invest in a kids sun protection tent for the beach or garden; pop-up children's UV tents are particularly convenient. Invest in some good quality sun cream, and always take time to dress your kids properly and keep them covered up, shaded and cool. There's some great UV protection clothing for kids too, and keep them safe around water with Zoggs and Koolsun products.
