I’d like to think of us as an active family. We love going to the beach, the zoo, or anywhere that gets us out of the house and keeps us moving around. The one thing we can’t forget before getting on the move is sun protection. The sun is fierce here all year round. It’s very important to me to keep my boys safe from sunburns or any kind of sun damage. We’ve tried all sorts of creams, lotions, and sprays since we go through quite a lot of sun protection.
Recently, we’ve been toting along Banana Boat and their Tear Free 
UltraMist Sunscreen. I love how easy it is to spray the kids down as I make sure every bit of their skin is covered. As a pre-k teacher, I hated using the thick sunblocks on my kids. It was so hard to get an even coat and then washing it off was impossible. Keeping a three-year old to stand still long enough was a chore all on its own. So far, my sons actually think it’s fun to have the sunscreen sprayed on. For their faces, I like to use the Banana Boat Baby Sunscreen Stick so that I can get the best coverage on their tender noses, tops of ears, and the back of their necks.
As for me and my husband, we try to be just as vigilant with our own skin. I have always enjoyed using the various sunscreens in the Banana Boat Sport Performance line. I’m glad they also put out UltraMist sprays in Sport Performance. I love how it’s not greasy and stays on while you’re running around in the sun.
