Sun safety is always in season. It’s important to protect your skin from sun damage throughout the year, no matter the weather. While you are out having fun, protect your skin from the sun’s damaging rays. Exposure to sun overtime increases your risk for skin problems, including skin cancer and premature aging. Sun protection should begin in infancy and continue throughout life. It is estimated that we get about eighty percent of our total lifetime sun exposure in the first eighteen years of life. Therefore, sun protection for young children is important to decrease the risk of problems later in life. Begin now to teach your children about sun protection. Take action to protect you and your children from the sun’s harmful rays:
- Limiting your time in the sun, especially between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., when the sun’s rays are most intense.
- Wearing clothing to cover skin exposed to the sun, such as long-sleeve shirts, pants, sunglasses, and broad-brim hats.
- Appy an sunblock with a SPF value of 30 or higher regularly and as directed.
- Reading the label to ensure you use your sunscreen correctly.
Kids Kitchen
Is your child always asking for a snack? Here is something you and your child will both enjoy preparing together. It is not designed for children to make on their own. Supervision and assistance from an adult are required. Getting your children involved in food preparation will go a long way in encouraging them to try new foods and enjoy eating.
