Q-A colleague is supervising the children outside in the hot sun without wearing a hat or sunscreen?
what you would say?
I think it is getting hotter for kids outside and they are not fully protected against it, isn't it better if we offer them some sunscreen or a hat to protect them from sun or can we take them inside to prevent them from sun?
Additional information you could provide
Too much of the sun’s UV can cause sunburn, skin damage, eye damage and skin cancer. Australia has one of the highest rates of skin cancer in the world. Two in three Australians will develop some form of skin cancer before the age of 70. Sun exposure during childhood has a significant impact on a person’s risk of skin cancer. only a few minutes of sun exposure to the face, arms and hands, or equivalent area of the skin is needed, before 10 am or after 3 pm, on most days of the week. People with naturally very dark skin require three to six times this level of exposure.

I think it is getting hot outside and you are not fully protected against it, isn't it better if you try some sunscreen or a hat to protect you from sun it would help you stay outside for a longer time period and a pair of sunglasses would also help alot
