Sunscreen schedule reminder
Six tear-off-style time slots for caregivers β grandparents, sitters, daycare staff β so nobody is guessing when sunscreen is due. Print, fold, and tuck into the swim bag.
| Time | Action |
|---|---|
| Before leaving home | First full coat β face, ears, shoulders, tops of feet. |
| On arrival (T+0) | Touch-up if any was rubbed off in the car or by clothing. |
| T+80 min | Full reapply. Water-resistant SPF expires here. |
| T+160 min | Reapply again β kids who were in the spray every minute lose more. |
| After lunch | Sunscreen + lip balm. Eating/drinking strips lip protection fast. |
| Before driving home | Light coat if you're walking through any open parking lot. |
A note on SPF: water-resistant sunscreens are tested at 40 or 80 minutes of immersion. Real-world wear is shorter. When in doubt, reapply.
