Nevertheless, at the end of the summer, I often see the traces of sunburn on children's faces and shoulders. This is not always the result of mindless sun exposure at the beach, but rather the consequences of exposure during sports (cycling, tennis), a situation where parents are often less careful.

The fairer their complexion (redheads and blonds), greater the danger. Protection must therefore be the same in the summer even with a slightly overcast sky or when children are moving around. The times when the sun is high in the sky are particularly dangerous. It is during adulthood that their children will suffer the consequences of unprotected exposure

I recommend anti-UV sunglasses, a wide-brimmed hat, a tee-shirt and high protection sunscreen on exposed skin. This product must be effective against UVB and UVA rays, applied in sufficient quantities and reapplied every two hours. You must have children drink often if the weather is hot. And avoid the sun between 11:00 and 16:00.
