☀️Sunscreen season is here☀️

As the weather warms up and the kids spend more time outside, don't forget the sunscreen! Protecting your child's skin now helps prevent painful sunburns and long-term skin damage.

🧴Tips for healthy sun protection:
*Use 30 SPF
~Apply 15-30 minutes before going outside
*Reapply every 2 hours (and after swimming or sweating)
~Don't forget ears, nose, shoulders, and tops of feet
*Hats, sunglasses, and shade are great extra protection too!

Keeping kids safe in the sun means more time for summer fun! ☀️

Sunscreen can help protect the skin from sunburn and some skin cancers but only if used correctly. Keep in mind that sunscreen should be used for sun protection, not as a reason to stay in the sun longer.

☀️ Stay Cool & Hydrated This Summer! 💧

At Tots and Teens Pediatrics, we want to help keep your little ones safe during the summer heat. Kids can get dehydrated quickly—especially when they’re playing outside and having fun!

Here are a few quick tips to keep your child healthy:
🌿 Offer water frequently (don’t wait until they say they’re thirsty)
🌿 Pack a water bottle for outings, camps, and sports
🌿 Choose water over sugary drinks or soda
🌿 Watch for signs of dehydration like dry lips, fatigue, or fewer bathroom trips

For infants: breast milk or formula should be their main source of hydration-- however 6 months to 1 year can have 4-6 ounces of water per day, children ages 1-3 years old need about 4 cups (32 ounces) of fluids per day, including water or milk. This increases for older kids to around 5 cups (40 ounces) for 4 to 8 year olds, and 7-8 cups (56-64ounces) for older children.

Let’s keep our kids happy, healthy, and cool all summer long! 😎

📞 Tots and Teens Pediatrics is here for you—call us anytime with questions or to schedule a visit!
