Hi, I really feel for you as I am in the same situation. I have 5 year old twin sons and do exactly the same things as you.

I rest as much as I can for a few days before then I do the following. I have a huge wide brim hat that is a tight weave and I know it sounds daft but its slightly to big or I find I get a headache. You can get sun screen on prescription from your GP which they give you the highest factor possible.

When I go out I max my pain killers before and keep them maxed for the next few days as I find this helps. Drink loads and I don't just mean a little I mean loads then you get to go to the toilet and take 5 min in the cool (but don't cool your face with water as you will wash sun lotion off), it also helps pass the nasties as my sons call them out of your body as it creates them during the day.

Anyway I hope some of this helps. Enjoy the time you have with your family.

Best wishes Helen
