Protecting your baby or child from the sun is essential whether you're heading to the park or beach, running errands, or enjoying a summer day outdoors. Babies and children are especially vulnerable to the dangers of heat and sun exposure.

Even on cloudy days, their sensitive skin can burn easily. Sunburn at any age, including in childhood, increases the risk of skin cancer later in life. UV rays from the sun cause damage to DNA, ages skin, damages eyes, and ultimately increases the risk of skin cancer.
