Sunlight, and especially its ultraviolet part, can damage children's skin with acute burns, and chronically in adults with photoaging and/or skin cancer. The intensity and duration of exposure are important, but also the characteristics (phototype) of the irradiated skin. Natural photoprotection can be strengthened by behavior modification, appropriate clothing and sunscreens. After solar damage, it is necessary to treat the skin and definitely not to continue sunbathing.

Keywords: sun ultraviolet radiation, children´s skin, photoprotection.
