When the sun is going down, it casts lovely long shadows. Try showing your child how to stand with the sun behind them and watch their shadow, make it move, chase it, jump on it…  You could also join in, waving your arms and wiggling your fingers. It’s a good way for both of you to burn off a bit of energy at the end of a beautiful day.

Safety: Wear high factor sun-screen when exposed to strong sunlight and, on hot days, avoid the heat of midday if you can.
