Only 25% Of Kids Use Sunscreen Regularly

A new study published in Pediatrics demonstrated that only 1 in 4 children regularly use sunscreen. These numbers are down from 2004 when 50% of all children reportedly used sunscreen on a regular basis. Researchers also pointed out that the time between ages 11 and 14 is a critical time in developing attitudes about tanning, wearing sunscreen and avoiding sunburns, especially among girls.
