Here comes the sun

It may be too early to think about slathering sunblock on ourselves, but not for our babies. There is nothing better, for mom and baby, then going on a long sunny walk. You both need the Vitamin D (more on that later). Just protect your baby from the rays.
Here is a list of the 5 least toxic and most effective sunblock for babies according to research by The Environmental Working Group:
- Soleo/Atlantis Resort Organic chemical free sunscreen SPF 30+
- Soleo/Wyland Sunscreen Organic chemical free sunscreen SPF 30+
- Soleo Organics Sunscreen Organic chemical free sunscreen SPF 30+
- California Baby Sunblock Stick Everyday/year-Round, SPF 30+
- California Baby Sunblock Stick No Fragrance, SPF 30+
Visit the Soleo Blog for where to buy and instructional videos.
Brands to stay away from entirely for babies:
- Aveeno
- Avon
- CVS
- Rite Aid
- Walgreens
Some brands carry an organic, baby, or less toxic version. Check the full list to find out the rating (0-10) of your product.
