Shade for Children

I am sure we all know by now how harmful the suns rays can be.  This should be considered every time we send our children out to play.

The first thing to do is apply a good sun screen and use it often.  Beyond sunscreen here are some ideas to shade your kids during outdoor play.

• A gazebo over the sand box
• Use a shade sail over the swing set
• A patio cover for lots of safe outdoor fun
• swing sets and pool toys with built in shade
• An Alumawood structure next to the swimming pool
• A boat canopy
• Sports shade for the sporting events
• A Pergola over the outdoor dining table
• Umbrellas, handheld and mounted

These are just a few ideas to get you started.  This site is full of ways to provide shade for children.  Spend some time and have a look.  The right shade will sure make the outdoors safer and a lot more comfy.
