You downhill escapades will require a different attire, then stroll in snow covered park. The dressing decisions should be based on weather, planed activity and length of time you plan to stay outside.

Dressing right for Weather First thing you need to do before you get ready, is to check weather forecast. Do not just assume that since it is nice and sunny, it will stay that way. Or that it is nice where you are going, even if it is just a short distance away. Remember, Canadian winters are quite unpredictable, and weather conditions change often without warning.

You know what weather to expect. Now you need to look at your planed activity. If your outing will include vigorous downhill skiing on double diamond trails, you will probably be much warmer then someone sitting in horse drawn sleigh.

Children, no matter what age they are, have a tendency to get quite wet when playing outside in snow. There is so much to do. The sledding, sliding, snow ball fights, igloo building, snow castle building, and snow angels in fresh, white, powdery stuff. Of course they get wet! What did you expect?

Here come clothing manufacturers to rescue! Researchers and developers come up with new fabrics, new insulations. They are making them warmer, greatly breathable and even waterproof. Kids can stay outside and play in snow longer, they come home dry and warm. Make sure that your kids wear gloves made with water repealing, breathable fabric. Avoid ones made with rubber lining, when kids play in snow, moisture gets inside and stays there, having no way to escape. Even if you put them in dryer, most likely they will stay wet inside, they will just smell different... and believe me, you don’t want that. Other important piece of kids winter attire is a hat. It is well known that body loses most of it’s heat through head That’s why newborn babies get those tiny, little hats to protect them form getting cold.
