For a few years now the government has followed the lead of a successful campaign launched in Australia about sun safety. The Slip, Slap, Slop campaign encouraged everyone to Slip on a T-Shirt, Slap on a hat and Slop on the sunscreen to protect the skin from the sun’s harmful rays. For babies and toddlers this is essential as their skin is thin and delicate and more easily damaged than an adults.

Whether you’re holidaying in the UK or abroad, a day at the beach with your baby or toddler can be the highlight of your trip. For a newborn baby, there are so many sights, smells and sounds for them to enjoy during their time at the seaside. As a parent, you’ll naturally want to keep your little one safe and protected from the sun and sea and there are some great baby/toddler safety products to do just that.
