Sunscreen for children

Every summer, children of all ages revel in the long hours, sunny days and inviting weather. With all that fun in the sun, from picnics at the park to hours on end at the swimming pool, it's important to make sure children are wearing enough sunscreen.

Sun damage is highly linked by doctors and scientists to skin cancer, and it is thought that numerous sun burns in childhood greatly increases the risk of cancer in adulthood. Protect your children with sunscreens rated SPF 30 and water-proof.
