As we have enjoyed the summer sunshine so much over the last few weeks, we read a book in Nursery called “Staying Safe in the Sun” and discussed what we know about looking after ourselves in the hot weather. Here is a selection of their ideas.
Cali: you wear a hat to keep safe. You have to drink lots of water.
Fraser: wear white clothes to keep cooler.
Imoen: I put suncream on to protect me from getting sunburned.
Kyle: go in the shade.
Matthew: you need to put suncream on your arms.
Archie: you can wear sunglasses.
Olivia: you need suncream.
Remy: put suncream on so your body doesn’t get burnt.
Mason: a big hat keeps your head cool.
Annalise: your skin goes red if it gets burned in the sun.
Louie: you put on sunglasses to keep your eyes safe.
Enid: put a sunhat on to keep your head safe.
Evan: put some more suncream on when you come out of the swimming pool.
Kai: you get burnt if you don’t put suncream on.
It sounds like the children have a good understanding of staying safe in the sun from these ideas. All they need to do now is enjoy the sunshine.
