Winter Clothes for Kids Guide

Brrrrrr... baby, it's cold outside.  Though we might feel the bitter bite of winter down to our bones, kids would play outside everyday if they had the option.  So it's up to the grown-ups to make sure that the little ones are bundled up in their warmest winter clothes  and protected from the elements when they head outdoors.  

Cold Weather Accessories

Hats  Keeping the head warm is so important! Cold weather hats  can be found in warm materials such as cotton,  fleece,  and wool.	Scarves  To prevent catching a cold, a scarf  is a wonderful way to keep toasty, or try a simple neck warmer for children.	Boots  Keep those little feet warm and cosy! Tundra boots  are great for the outdoors and Ugg  and Hush Puppies  make super-warm and soft boots for little ones as well.	Gloves  Offering alternatives in material, fleece  or cotton gloves  are warm.  For ease in putting them on, try mittens!

Cosy Outerwear

Fleece  Fleece jackets  are great for cold weather, as they can be lightweight,  water-resistant,  and warm inside.  The North Face  offers a variety of fleeces for children.	Winter Coats  An insulated jacket  is a very smart move for the winter months.  Pullovers  serve as an easy and fast way to bundle up, and pea coats  work as a casual or dress coat.	Down Parkas  It doesn't get much warmer than a parka!   Whether filled with down or insulated otherwise, The North Face  and Columbia  offer a range of children's parkas.	Snow suits  For babies and for children, this all-in-one snow suit  is ideal for winter sports,  sledding,  and snowball fights.

Warm Winter Clothing

Turtle necks  Covering the neck up, a turtle neck sweater  is winter essential.	Snow Pants  Snow pants are waterproof  and insulted for the ultimate outdoor warmth.  Bib-type snow pants  are available as well.	Sweaters  A sweater  is a winter must.  Turtle neck sweaters,  cardigan sweaters,  and pullover sweaters  are found in a variety of materials like wool,  cashmere,  and cotton.	Thermal Underwear  For the maximum protection against the cold, start layering.
