Answers:
For the Med it's okay, stay out of the noonday sun, get in the water a lot and reapply as required!. Have T shirts and hats available!. In the Canaries f50 at least and no sun between 12-2!. Good time to have a lazy lunch!. Keep those t's and hats nearby and watch for burning!. Get the kids in pool/ sea, as often as possible to keep the skin cool!. Have a good milk based after sun available!. Don't let the kids look like Madge!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

A SPF 30 is OK if the kids if you apply it properly and re-apply it every 2 hours!. Most people don't apply enough sunscreen for it to work properly!. Sometimes a combination of lotions works best - using zinc oxide (a sunblock) on most places, including the back of the neck, shoulders, back of arms, back of calves, top of feet, and thighs, and then using a lighter, waterproof sunscreen for the face, arms, mid and lower back, and stomach!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You don't say how old your children are!? I only use factor 50 suncream on my 4 year old son and 10 year old daughter along with a sunblock stick on there lips, nose and under the eyes!.

I would think that as 30 is still a very high factor that they should still be well protected!. It is just my personal preference to use factor 50!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

On children - I would suggest the highest possible!. Try and make them wear t-shirts too!. The UV rays are not good for their skin!. They will still look tanned and healthy at the end - just not burned!.

Also - ALWAYS make them wear hats!Www@Answer-Health@Com
