Sun protection

Babies under six months old should be kept out of the sun whenever possible, and older babies and children should only be allowed in the sun for limited periods and if they are well protected.

It is important to remember that:

  • Sun can burn from early spring onwards, not just in high summer
  • The sun’s rays can penetrate the clouds
  • The sun’s rays can penetrate light cotton clothing
  • Babies and children in cars need to be kept cool and well shaded from rays coming through the glass
