Keep your kids warm and dry this autumn

As summer fades away, it's time to make sure that your kids' autumn wardrobe is up to date. Avoid overdressing them for the unpredictable weather. Layering is key - opt for a waterproof outer layer for rainy days and puddle-jumping fun.

Waterproof clothing

Waterproof or shell clothing? Which one should you opt for? Team Shell praises the durability and breathability of their outerwear, while Team Waterproof highlights the ease of cleaning and convenience. Whichever you prefer, a leak-proof outer layer is essential for the autumn season.

Wonderful wellies

A pair of wellies is a preschool autumn must-have. Opt for unlined wellies with room for thick socks or insulated boots that can tackle any puddle. Ensure your child also has breathable, water-resistant shoes for milder days.

Accessorise wisely

On chilly, wet days, waterproof gloves (with or without lining) are a handy addition, especially for kids averse to sticky or sandy hands. Mittens are ideal for preschoolers, allowing them to easily put them on themselves, giving teachers a breather from glove duty.

Warm knits

Keeping warm during unpredicatble weather changes is essential. A warm woolly knit is perfect for the colder days. Paired with a think rain coat, your child will stay warm and dry.
