Don’t we just love watching our kids play around outdoors? The excitement, joy, learning and laughter bring us back to memories of our own childhood, and remind us of how important this stage is in their development. But playing outdoors in the harsh South African sunshine can have some very negative side effects that we are well adviced to keep our children protected from.
The problem that most parents face is too keep the children constantly covered in sun block, uncomfortable clothing or hiding away in the shade. The sun block quickly gets smeared off and the moment you turn your back they have lost their hat and running around happily in the fields.
There are many things that a parent can do in order to keep their children safe from the sun. But as per the scenario painted above, many of them are just not practical.
One alternative solution that has proven very effective and popular for both children and adults is UV coated clothing that keeps the body protected against the harmful rays.
There are many products like this available on the market, but they tend to be rather expensive and cumbersome to invest in.
Our unique Sun Sleeve is different. It is lightweight and can be worn with any type of clothing, so there is no need to invest in a new wardrobe. It slips snugly over both arms and legs and your child won’t even know they are wearing them. Specially designed for the South African climate the Sun Sleeve offers protection and durability at the same time.
It is not difficult to get your children to use the Sun Sleeve products because they are non-restrictive, allowing your kids the freedom to frolick like before. The product comes in different colours and designs with a high trendiness factor so that your kids will want to wear it even when you are not watching them.
As a parent, the health and welfare of your children is a high priority. Keeping them protected from the harsh sun is one of the things that you will constantly be faced with. Why invest in expensive protection that is impractical and uncomfortable?
We would like to encourage you to explore the alternatives that are available. If you are not sure how to go about this or would like some guidance for the protection of your own children, please contact us and we’ll be happy to share some more ideas with you.
