Sun Safety
With the hot weather, it is important to talk to your children about sun safety and teach them good sun protection habits.
- Slip-on some sun-protective clothing that covers as much skin as possible.
- Slop on broad-spectrum, water-resistant SPF30+ sunscreen. Put it on 20 minutes before you go outdoors and every two hours afterward. Sunscreen should never be used to extend the time you spend in the sun.
- Slap on a hat that protects your face, head, neck, and ears.
- Seek shade.
- Slide on some sunglasses – make sure they meet Australian Standards.
Extra care should be taken between 10 am and 3 pm when UV levels reach their peak.
