Protect Your Kids SKIN From The Sun With SunSkinz! There's A Giveaway Too!

I think that we are all prone to cancer of some sort, in this day & age. Some of which we can avoid, some we can't avoid. The cancer we can avoid needs to be taken more seriously! Especially with our children and their skin. I lather my kids up good with sunscreen when they play outside in the HOT summer sun. Why? I am not only afraid of them getting sunburned, but I also do not want them subjecting their skin to the harmful UV rays that the sun can direct on their soft skin...and cause them problems when they are older.Thankfully, companies like Sun Protection Zone take the sun's rays seriously too. They offer products like SunSkinz for kids, which give them protection from the sun, as well as a trendy water play outfit.All of my kids got to help me review their SunSkinz line (sent to us free of charge for this review) and we were all very excited and impressed! Not only did the kids think that the shirts felt great on, I was happy to know that they were protecting my kid's sensitive skin from the sun's harmful rays.
The three older kids got to review the
SunSkinz Short Sleeved Shirts. I paired them with bottoms from other swimsuits and it worked perfectly! In fact, our youngest daughter wore her one piece swimsuit underneath it and it worked fine as well!
Our little guy reviewed their
SunSkinz Long Sleeve Suit. THIS IS ADORABLE! He looked like he was ready to "Hang Ten" and catch some waves body boarding or surfing in San Diego. SO CUTE! Plus, I love that his whole body is covered and that the suit has a snap crotch, so making swim diaper changes will be a cinch! I was very impressed with that!
I think that these
SunSkinz products are FABULOUS! We give them a One Bored Mommy 100% approval! We would definitely recommend them to our readers as a product that we feel would help protect their children's skin from the sun's UV and UFP rays.

Would you be interested in trying out a
SunSkinz Product from Sun Protection Zone? I get the pleasure of offering (1) One Bored Mommy Reader the chance to win their own SunSkinz short sleeved shirt for boy or girl!

Usually, we be sure to apply and if necessary, reapply sunscreen. I also make my daughter wear a light hat to protect her scalp from burning (very thin hair, just coming in).

I'd love to win this giveaway because my daughter is fair skinned like me and has the same blond hair blues eyes that make it a higher risk for sunburns and later in life, skin cancer. She loves to be outdoors though!

I use sunblock and make my son wear his baseball hat when he is outside. I also have him wear a swim shirt and always keep a sippy cup of water near by to keep him hydrated! He needs a new swim shirt for this summer, his old one is too small.

Prior to my children going out in the sun I spray them with SPF 50 and make sure they have hats on. I would love to win because my son is very pale and I'm very worried about him being burned. I hear often that my son is the most pale kid people have seen.

Trina said...

I have a very pale skinned child, so whenever he goes out in the sun we make sure and load up on the DPF 50 sunscreen.
