1. There are so many varieties of sun protection for children. There are creams, lotions, sprays, sticks and oils. Choose the one that agrees most with your child, depending on the kind of place you live in or the kind of place you are going to visit.

2. Make sure the sunscreen you choose has SPF of minimum 30 for every day use and higher for hotter weather. If you are going to a beach, make sure the sunscreen has a minimum SPF of 50.

3. The sunscreen your child should use must protect his skin from both UVA and UVB radiation.

4. Ensure that it is also water resistant if your child is going to be playing in the water. Remember to wipe your child's body and reapply the product all over the exposed area.

5. Always wash the sunscreen off at the end of the day. It may protect your child from harmful radiations but it does contain a few chemicals for it to function the way it does.

6. Make sure you read the ingredients. Your ideal sunscreen shhould not contain any parabens or oxybenzone. These are harmful chemicals are definitely supposed to be avoided.

7. Sunscreen is not only meant for summers. It should be used throughout the year, even in the winter because the radiations are always present.
