CLASSROOM GUIDE.

Children need special care as they spend so much more time outside than adults, and their skin is so much thinner than adults and can burn quickly as they have less melanin (Skin Pigment) to protect their skin. Australian research shows that 80% of lifetime exposure occurs before age 18, and Babies, even when in the shade, can burn very quickly.

Therefore we need to educate children and other parents about sun damage and the strength of the sun, the sun aware campaign. Children only have one skin so we need to help them to protect it.
