Positive effects of the sun on our organism are known for a long time.

The heat of its rays is in fact a panacea for our body, for which the sun is essential to assure the correct operation of important vital functions.

The benefits brought by the sun overcome in fact abundantly the harmful aspects that they is easily able besides to implore following some simple shrewdness like for example don’t stay on the sun in the warmest hours or to protect ourselves with solar filters and creams.

Wrong instead not to take advantage of his so many healthy characteristics. Some example?

Meanwhile, not by chance without the light and the heat of its rays there would be no life on our planet for whose existence represents therefore the primary condition.

Equally, the sun presides to the correct operation of our organism.

When we grant us a “bath of sun” we give in fact great energy to immuniser system, we fight the symptoms and the rheumatic illnesses and we strengthen the bones since its rays help to fix in them the Calcium.

Only in presence of the sun, in fact, our body correctly activates vitamin D necessary for the correct absorption of the mineral more important for our bones.

Aspect not to be underestimated, gives besides, also a lash to our humour being the sun an important factor for the production of serotonin and endorphins, the famous hormones and neurotransmitters of pleasure.

Finally we also assume a beautiful shade to do envy to maniacs of tintarella, always second in comparison to the shades of a beautiful natural tan.

If then to the so many virtues of the sun we combine those of the sea - like iodine or sea aerosol for example - the game is made.

A week of sun and sea will make you revive.

Riccione waits for you to give you some healthy baths of sun without side effects because, like in every thing, the important is simply not to exaggerate!

The difficulties of leaving for a holiday when children are small discourage many people, that are already frightened by the idea of not finding a comfortable and practical milieu.

To smooth the holiday for families who move with their children is the mission of our hotels in Riccione.
Supplied with additional facilities to meet the increased needs of the customer, they are also designed with a philosophy that is based on the greatest comfort and safety.

Rounding off the corners is only an example of the attention given by our reception facilities Made for family.
These are hotels in three or four stars that a few years ago relyed on experienced interior designers in order to be able to accommodate with care young visitors and their parents.

Each room is designed to be safe, secure, hygienic and provided with each useful service.
Funny colors and details are functional to recreate the typical atmosphere of each nursery.

As regards security, rounded corners, protective gates, little beds with anti-fall bars, covered wall sockets, prevent the baby can in any way hurt himself.
Cots, changing tables, napkin baskets, night lights, bottle-warmer (no extra for the first child), small basins for the bath, can help.

All toys available to children, in the play room, in the garden and on the beach in the dedicated area, are according to law and suitable for all ages.

Regarding hygiene, antiacarus treatments during cleaning and sterilization of linens, bottle or cutlery for meals, contribute in a great way to reassure parents.

About restoration, some funny and healthy menus are specially made by nutritionists of childhood.
The entire staff is committed to make pleasant and relaxing the stay for guest families.

If elsewhere spending holidays with children can be problematic, in Riccione certainly it is not.

In the Pearl of the Adriatic with Family Hotels there is a smoothed holiday… a lucky holiday!

If from here to Riccione we will cross over than twenty motorcycles then… your desire will realize!

Here’s a game on the road to keep smaller passengers occupied and to simplify some things to Mom and Dad.
Recreational activities absorb the child and can distract him from the difficulties that are part of each trip.

The monotony of motorway, the impossibility to move, especially if one is still at the age of car’s chair, the less care that parents can give to the little baby, all that rain…

Resorting to funny expedients that keep occupied the child in car or in any other means of transport is clearly a choice dictated by common sense, more than advisable if there are many kilometres to cover.

Many games have to do with counting, as the “game of numbers on movement”, where at the departure each participant chooses a figure that he will search around him during the trip and that he will signal aloud finding it.

Many others with the vocabulary, such as “reverse”, where you will have to guess the words that someone will read backwards, or “one minute of words” where given an initial letter people have to make a list of all the items that will cross their mind.

Others require a preventive preparation, as “tombola in car” with the various means of transport that must be designed on scorecards instead of numbers. And again: titles of songs to be fished in a bag and to be sung as well as people can, memory tests, the mythical “it is arriving a cargo full of…” that at least once in our life has committed all of us!

In short there are many games on the road, but there is nothing to prevent you from inventing some new!

And if they will not make the happy family of iconography of American’50s, at least they will help to make travel more carefree and to make easily manageable children.
Riccione is ready to welcome a lot of families for the approaching long weekend and reminds them that well begun is half done: involving the child in games on the road can be a good prelude for a wonderful holiday.

The blue skies and the sweet air of spring are an irresistible invitation to have the lunch break outdoors, on the park benches, strictly to sunlight.
When, always too soon, it is time to return to the office, we feel it is really time to organize a weekend at the sea for the first sun bath.
The more that the long weekend of April 25 is approaching and the most lucky people can transform it into a real holiday that will keep them away from work and from the city until May 2.
We imagine you already lying on the sun bed, the boldest in a swimsuit, and we want to remind you that exposure to sunlight always requires special attention to prevent damage to skin. Clearly a greater care will be necessary now that we are at the beginning of the season and for the most delicate phototypes.

To prevent the risks associated with sun burns, the Ministry of Health has drafted a regulation for a proper exposure to sunlight.
Let us examine all together the seven rules to follow:
1. Know your phototype and pay a particular attention on sensitive skin
2. Expose yourself gradually to sunlight
3. Use some appropriate protective creams
4. Avoid exposure to the sun in the hottest hours, between 12 and 17
5. Wear glasses with lenses that can shield the passage of UVA and UVB radiations
6. Interrupt exposure in the event of skin redness associated with light burning and itch
7. Expose children only after one year of age, never in the not recommended hours, using total screen creams until at least three years and then with an high protective index.

For people are still in search of the perfect destination for the first sunbathing of the season, we suggest the advantageous Riccione Hotels’packages that have been thought both for the long weekend of April 25 and for the period from April 25 to May 1.
For a relaxing and enjoyable holiday in the Adriatic Pearl, let us make a date with the first sun, that will not burn us and that we will not ever forget.

It’s Easter: let’s decorate Easter eggs.
The swallow has been drawn above it perhaps does not make a summer, whereas it immediately makes Easter.
We speak about the decorated egg, female task, still felt and widespread especially in small towns.
Coloured on Saturday and placed in a basket to dry, the Sunday of the Resurrection it is brought to the church to be blessed and then consumed during the festive lunch.
Ancient custom, eggs were already coloured by Egyptians to make a present for the return of spring.
With the spread of Christianity, a legend wants some eggs suddenly painted with red in front of Peter’s incredulity to the news of the Resurrection of Jesus given by Mary Magdalene.
It is in the Renaissance courts that among nobles spreads the use of presenting gems and pearls-studded eggs, but the climax of preciosity has been reached at the end of the nineteenth century by the famous eggs of the goldsmith Peter Carl Fabergé for the Russian imperial court.
Preciosity and refinements aside, to decorate eggs is simple and fun, and gives way to have your own way and to express your creativity.
According to its use, it is necessary to empty it of its contents (with a big needle that perforate it at both extremities) if you want to use it as a decoration, whereas you must make it hard-boiled and paint it just with vegetable and for food colours if you want to eat it.
It may be useful to know that by putting in a pot peels of blonde onions you can get the orange, yellow with orange peels or carrots, green with spinach leaves, blue with red cabbage leaves, brown with coffee, red with blueberries or fresh red beet.
Important devices are: adding a teaspoon of vinegar to water, boiling for 15 minutes on a slow fire, putting the pot with colours and eggs in the fridge all night, and polishing eggs with olive oil.
With for food colours (at grocer’s), we suggest instead to bathe already hard-boiled eggs in cold water.
For a colourful and joyous Easter, there is an egg to be coloured or decorated. And who has more ideas, the more they make.
Visit the hotels of Riccione open at Easter, provided with heating, air conditioning, satellite colour TV, rooms with shower box and special offers for families with children!
