I wanted to share a new campaign by Banana Boat® sun care called 101 Days of Summer Play. This camapign, just in time for those HOT summer days, encourages families across the U.S. to create and capture happy, healthy summer memories, while highlighting the importance of sun protection.
Take the Pledge:
Banana Boat is encouraging parents to pledge to enjoy fun outdoor fun with their families every day, all summer long. Each pledge taken will trigger a donation of one bottle of sunscreen to The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp – a nonprofit organization that provides camp experiences for children coping with cancer and other serious illnesses. Readers can pledge at the Banana Boat® brand Facebook page!
While you are there taking the Banana Boat® Facebook page provides parents with an activity guide that offers easy and fun ways to spend time with your family outside every day this summer.

Sunscreen Application Tips
Whether you are spending just a few minutes outside or taking an all-day bike ride in the park, it’s important to remember to apply sunscreen at least 15-30 minutes before heading outdoors. Typically, you should apply a golf ball-sized amount of sunscreen prior to any outdoor activities and always reapply every two hours or after swimming or sweating.
