Sun Tan lotion for kids. Which one ?

Have just been to Boots as a friend told me that a lot of the sun tan lotion was BOGOF. But I got myself totally confused by all the different makes, factors, sprays, milks. What should I go for for the kids ? We are going to Menorca in June and I have two very pale boys who will be 6 and 3.

Is the coloured stuff better than the white stuff, or will they be totally green ?
Spray or cream ?

Help !!!!

Thanks Janh - this P20 stuff looks like a really good idea to start the day with, before going out, then putting the normal stuff on later.

I didn't know this existed, and I think it will be really useful when kids go to nursery and I have to put cream on them at 8.30am for when they go out a 10am. (nursery apply cream if we haven't done it).

Ps. I thought it was over 30SPF that was a waste of time.

superdrug had p20 last year, not sure about this year, the website does tell you where u can get it.

check out another product called ultrasun - sounds better than p20? - haven't tried it myself though
I can't get the slash to work onthe computer so here is the address
www.ultrasun.co.uk/
it's talked about on mumsnet on products, which is the best suncream for a toddler too
sorry no links - french keyboard baffles me

Can anyone recommend a spray-on suncream suitable for a baby (with a high SPF - 50+) ideally - not that I am fussy. When I last tried putting Soltan Baby on DS he screamed his head off like nothing on earth, so hope that a spray may be a little more to his liking!

ultrasun

(might work!)

related to Chinchilla's posting i just thought someone might be interested to know that Tesco are selling really cheap Nivea Childrens Sun Block Lotion SPF60 200ml at £2.97 (other SPF and sizes available)
