Protect Your Baby from The Sun This Summer

The skin of a baby is far more sensitive to the sun's rays that you may think, and certainly more sensitive than an adult, and it's vital to take the necessary steps to ensure your baby does not suffer excessive sun exposure. A good sun hat is also an important sun protective line, and something that baby should be wearing however briefly he may be out in the sun. Wide brim sun hats are usually popular and look smart, but it's the legionnaire's style sun hats that offer the best protection. The extra length of material at the back provides extra protection to the neck and back of the head. As with clothing, sun hats can also carry approval markings to indicate the material itself is sufficiently UV proof.

Even the best sun protective clothing and hats need to be complimented by a good covering of sun block sun cream. However much coverage may seem to be offered with clothes and hats there is next to no protection to the delicate face, hands and feet without a good sun cream.
