Children know that summer is probably the most fun of all seasons. However, experts say it is also the most dangerous, especially for children aged 14 and under. In its first study of children’s safety in the US, the National Safe Kids Campaign (NSKC) found that nearly half of the injury-related(与受伤相关的) deaths among children happened in summer.

Experts are not surprised by the study’s results. They always know summer is a dangerous season for children. During the summer, children are out of school and spend more time outdoors. They are more likely to get into an accident or be injured. “While we encourage children to be active and spend more time outdoors, they need to understand the importance of safety,” said Everett Koop, an expert of the NSKC.

To help children stay safe, the NSKC started a “Make it a Safe Kids Summer” Campaign during National Safe Kids Week, from May 5th to May 12th. Here are some important summer safety tips from the NSKC:

●Always wear your seat belt.

●Make sure there is an adult around when you decide to go swimming.

●Wear a life jacket(救生衣) when on a boat or doing water sports.

●Obey all traffic rules.

●Don’t meet e-pals alone.

We all want our skin(皮肤) to look good. If your skin is clear and healthy, it makes you feel better about yourself. How can you get great skin? Here are some suggestions.

Protect your skin against the sun.

If you are going to be outside, especially in the sun, you should put on suncream(防晒霜) in summer.

Wear a hat to protect your face. A wide hat is the best, as it will protect your ears and neck as well.

Stay in the shade whenever you can.

Use suncream about half an hour before going outside.

How to wash your skin?

Wash your body all over once a day. Use mild soap(肥皂) and warm water to wash your body. Wash the soap off, as it may harm your skin.

Wash your face by using a facecloth and soap or cleaning cream, and then wash with cool water. Twice a day is enough, as too much cleaning can harm your skin.
