Outdoor Safety

Babies under 6 months of age should be kept out of direct sunlight. Move your baby to the shade under a tree, umbrella or stroller canopy.

Dress babies in lightweight clothing that covers the arms and legs.

Damaging UV rays can bounce back from sand and concrete; so be particularly careful of these areas.

Most of the sun's rays can come through the clouds on an overcast day; so use sun protection even on cloudy days.

Drink plenty of water, non-carbonated and non-alcholic drinks, even if you do not feel thirsty.

Never swim alone.
