Safety on the beach

When you decide to go to the sea with an infant, you need to consult a doctor so that he recommends you first-aid preparations and skin care products for the delicate skin in the sun. Be sure to take a first aid kit with medicines not only for the child, but also for adults. There should include such drugs as: sunscreen with a high degree of protection, antipyretic, antiseptic, disinfectant, analgesic; from diarrhea and poisoning, panthenol, as well as adhesive plaster, bandage and cotton wool.

To protect children from heat stroke , sunburn and hypothermia, do not be on the first day for a long time to be on the beach and in the water. The best time to find on the beach is before 11:00 or after 16:00 hours. Be sure to lubricate the child with sunscreen. Subcooling can occur if the child is in the water for a long time, or runs along the beach in wet clothes. Some children just have an hour to swim in a wet swimsuit or swimming trunks to get pneumonia, because they do not have a subcutaneous fat layer, and the baby's body quickly cools.

Also, children need special shoes and clothes for the beach. Take with you rubber slaps, so that the child's legs are not burned about the sun-hot sand or stones, of course, swimming trunks (swimsuit) and removable dry panties, as well as a light cloak or towel and a necessary panama for games on the beach.

Examine the sand around the place where the child is playing - very often glass, wire and other dangerous garbage are poorly seen on the sandy shore.

Safety in water

When children play on the beach or bathe in the water, in no case should they be left unattended by adults. When the child goes to splash in the sea, it is necessary to put on it an inflatable children's life jacket or a circle. Do not allow children to swim to great depths. And as soon as the child leaves the water, immediately dry it with a towel and change into dry clothes.

Meals on vacation

A very important item on holiday is the food of the children. If you took vouchers to a high-class boarding house, then this question is reduced only to snacks on the beach itself, because in these institutions all sanitary norms and rules are observed, and even can make a menu specially for children. But, if you rest, renting housing, it is better to prepare food yourself, in this case it will be the best option and your family will not be at risk of earning dysentery in a low-quality coastal cafe. And for children under 3, it is better to follow the diet and use products the same as at home and not give something new for testing. Do not buy anything on the beach, except fruit, because the food that they sell, may deteriorate in a day, and it is not known in what conditions it was prepared and stored.

Based on these simple tips, you will have a wonderful holiday with your children, and it will not be overshadowed by any problems.
