In Nz, in the summertime the temperatures can be really hot causing a lot of people to get sun burnt. Sunburn isn’t fun to have, you can get skin cancer from it.
Here are five things you can do to not get sunburnt.
1. Apply sunblock on your face, legs, arms, etc before you head outside and its always good to apply some more on every once in a while.
2. Put a sunhat on, a lot of people can get very burnt on their faces, necks, and behind their ears so its a good thing if you were a sunhat.
3. You can always wear long sleeved t - shirts. Long sleeved t - shirts are more protective in
The sun and darker colours can also protect you from the sun as well.
4. Go into the shade every once in a while. Sitting outside in the sun can not always be so
good for your skin, you can always plan outdoor activities in the shade too.
5. Wear sunglasses. Wearing sunglasses is important, because your eyes can still get
Damaged from the sun, just like your skin can, if you get burnt on your eyes it can leave
You to have blurred vision and a burning sensation.
Hi there Aimee,
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful to see you back and posting again, I hope you've had a lovely Christmas and New Year! I can tell that you have put in quite a bit of time and effort into this activity, it's great to see. I love that you have provided an introduction, it's really important that people are aware of how crucial it is to stay protected under the sun, well done Aimee!
I can tell that you have done your research and am happy to know that you are well equipped with the knowledge to have fun under the sun safely. I have also been reminded about some helpful tips from you so thank you for that! Does your school have a uniform and does it require you to wear a hat? I had to wear a hat all throughout primary and intermediate school but my high school didn't require students to wear hats. I think it's really important that we keep sun smart our whole lives, you wouldn't want to get a nasty burn every time you wanted to play out in the sun, that would be no fun!
Keep up the wonderful work,
Evelyn :)
