Children in preschool spend a lot of time outdoors, regardless of the weather. Therefore, proper clothing is essential for your child to stay warm, dry, and comfortable. A good rule of thumb is to follow the three-layer principle:
- Inner Layer: Moisture-wicking underwear.
- Middle Layer: Insulating layer to retain warmth.
- Outer Layer: Windproof and waterproof clothing.
Consider your child's activity level: Less active children need more layers to stay warm, while more active children might need lighter clothing to avoid overheating.
Tips for Clothing
- Avoid jackets with fixed hoods and strings to prevent hazards during play.
- Choose comfortable and flexible clothing.
- Ensure that outdoor suits fit well, so they do not restrict movement.
- Use a neck warmer or buff instead of a scarf for safety.
- Label all clothing with your child's name to avoid mix-ups.
