Every frosty morning, moms wonder, how to dress a child. They are worried, is it not cold, will not heat up. Here are some tips, what they will do so that the toddler can play freely outside.
The ears – a woolen cap should be large enough, to cover the ears. Caps with ear-flaps and a chin strap are very good – even then they do not move, when the child goes crazy while playing. However, do not tie the cap too tightly. If you are buying a hooded jacket for your child, check it out, is it roomy enough and has a binding under the chin. Often, children do not want to wear a wool hat, because they say, that he was scratching his head. Fleece caps are then a great solution – colors, soft, light and warm. They are also easy to wash.
Face – biting frost and strong winds can cause irritation, and even a slight frostbite on the baby's delicate skin. It is especially dangerous for little ones, who are sledging or skiing – then the cold air attacks harder. If the thermometer in a sheltered place shows minus 10 degrees, it's at speed 20 km per hour the air has a temperature of approx 8 degrees lower. The best protection for a child's head during winter sports is a balaclava hat. You can also put a thin cap with holes for eyes and mouth under an ordinary hat. It is also worth applying a thick layer of greasy cream on the child's face.
Hands – mitts protect the hands from the cold better than gloves with 5 fingers. On extremely cold days, it is a good idea to put some thin gloves on your child first 5 fingers, and then mitts.
Feet – so that your toes do not stiffen in the cold, should be put on the baby 2 pairs of socks. Shoes should be insulated with fur and waterproof.
