Young children's skin is thinner and more sensitive than adults', so long sleeves, a wide-brim hat and shade are the simplest protection on outings.

For babies under six months, health guidance usually puts shade and clothing first; ask a paediatrician before using sunscreen. The list below is ranked by the independent usdxu score.
