Sunscreen Tips for Toddlers!
QuickStart Quick Tips!
Getting toddlers ready for the sun can sometimes feel like a challenge—but it doesn’t have to be! With a few playful strategies, applying sunscreen can become a fun and easy part of your daily routine.
Make it into a game.
Using makeup brushes or taking turns can help turn sunscreen time into something exciting instead of a chore.
Add in materials.
Give your child something to focus on while you apply sunscreen. A doll or toy is perfect—they can practice applying sunscreen too, encouraging pretend play while building an important habit.
Keep it consistent.
Doing this routine every time before going outside helps your child know what to expect. Pair it with something fun afterward to create a positive association.
Start small, then build up.
Begin by applying sunscreen to exposed areas so your child can get used to the feeling. Gradually increase as they become more comfortable.
