Baby Sun Protection

It’s summer time and you are probably thinking about all the outdoor fun you want to enjoy with your baby during the day. This rises a lot of questions about baby sun protection. You surely want to make sure your baby gets adequate UV sun protection so you can enjoy all the things you have planned for your family.

It’s vital to make sure your baby does not suffer too much sun exposure. A lot of new parents underestimate just how much more sensitive a baby’s skin and eyes are to sun rays.

The most important part of your baby sun protection is UV protective clothing. Usually it’s a one piece baby suit or two piece bottoms and tops set. Those are great for lazy days by the beach or pool or for walks in the park.

Just make sure that it has at least a factor 50 sunblock for optimum baby sun protection.

Next, a good baby sun hat is second most important part of baby sun protection clothing. Wide brim sun hats are very popular and look cute, but if you want to make doubly sure your baby has enough protection, I recommend you go with the legionnaire style baby sun hat. They are designed to fully cover your baby’s neck under all circumstances.

The last part of your baby sun protection clothing is sun glasses. As with the skin, the eyes of a baby are very very sensitive. If you choose to buy sunglasses for your baby, look for UV400 rated models that comply with the necessary standards. Just ask the shop clerk for guidance on this one.

Now, if you combine all of that with the sunblock cream, you have a great baby sun protection and nothing should stand in the way of the fun outdoor activities you have planned for you and your family.
