I love playing in the bright, strong, warm sun.
yeah same, there's nothing that could go wrong!
Whats sun safe? i have never heard of it before!
Hey guys you seem to be having fun but are you being sun safe?
What happens if we are exposed to the UV rays for to long without being protected?
Sun safety is the practice of taking basic actions to avoid UV ray overexposure while yet being able to enjoy the outdoors and the sun.
Oh no that doesn't sound good, so how can we protect ourselves from sun exposure so we can stay safe.
How about the short term affects?
The short term affects of over exposure to sun includes; Sunburn or sunstroke, and dehydration. Sunburn however is the most common which causes the cells and blood vessels to be damaged and eventually your skin begins to look dry, wrinkled, discoloured, and leathery.
Well one long term affect is skin cancer. It is the abnormal growth of skin cells. when you're exposed to extreme UV radiation, your skin cells start to multiply which can form tutors.
Where are we supposed to get those from?
You can reduce your risk of sun damage and skin cancer by staying in shade, wearing sunscreen, brimmed hats, and sunglasses to protect your eyes from the bright sun.
Wow these are awesome thanks so much. Not only do they protect us from the sun but they also look really cool.
I have some spare sun protective things which you guys can borrow if you would like.
