Protect Your Kids from the Sun with Coppertone!

Alright, we all know how important it is to wear sunscreen, but I will admit I am not very good at putting sunscreen on myself when we are out in the sun. I know, I know. Bad mommy. But, I do lotion up my kiddos. This weekend, we spent Saturday morning and afternoon at our friend’s house on the lake. The beach area was pretty shaded, but we also spent some time on the boat (see below). I lathered up the boys in the Coppertone Kids Tear-Free Lotion SPF 50 and Coppertone WaterBABIES Pure & Simple Lotion SPF 50. I’ve used other sunscreens before that were runny and didn’t soak in the skin and that was definitely not the case with these. Both formulas worked great – no sunburn on either kiddo, and we were out for about four hours during the peak time of the day.
