Keep Safe in the Sun! Having fun in the sun is one of the best parts of

the spring and summer months, but it can also be

dangerous. Children can develop serious sunburns

or become dehydrated in the summer heat.

Sunburns and spending time in the sun without

sun protection has been found to increase the risk

of skin cancer later in life. You can use the

following safety tips to protect yourself and your

children from the sun:

Ensure there is some shade around play

areas or use a sun umbrella.

Children should wear a sun hat with a

wide brim and back flap, loose cotton

clothing, and 100% broad spectrum

sunglasses.

Use sunblock with at least 30 SPF on all

areas of exposed skin (don’t forget the

ears, nose, back of neck, and tops of feet).

Reapply sunblock every two hours, and

after swimming.

Encourage children to drink fluids (with

no added sugar), especially water.

Be a role-model for children and protect

yourself from the sun as well.

Signs of Heat Exhaustion:

Thirst

Fatigue

Stomach or leg cramps

Cool, moist skin
