Layering allows your child to stay comfortable as temperatures and activity levels change throughout the day. A good layering system includes:

• Base Layer: Moisture-wicking fabric to keep sweat off the skin.

• Middle Layer: Insulating fleece or wool for warmth.

• Outer Layer: Waterproof and windproof gear to protect against the elements.

Proper footwear is essential for safety and comfort:

• Rainy/Cold Weather: Waterproof, insulated boots.

• Warmer Weather: Sturdy, closed-toe shoes.

• Socks: Wool or thick synthetic socks to keep feet dry and warm.

Depending on the weather, these items are a must:

• Warm hats for cold days or sun hats for sunny days.

• Waterproof gloves or mittens for wet and cold conditions.

• Sunscreen for UV protection, even on cloudy days.

Yes! To avoid mix-ups, please label all clothing, boots, and accessories with your child’s name.
