Here is a list of advice that you might find helpful when you want to sunbathe:

  1. Children under three years old should not be exposed to the sun.

  2. Avoid the middle part of the day (from 12 noon to 4 in the afternoon).

  3. It is advisable to use the appropriate cream for your skin.

  4. It's good to protect your head with a hat or cap and your body with clothes to ward off the sun's rays.
