When choosing a winter overalls for a child, parents should not be guided only by its appearance and price. Quite often, an expensive and beautiful thing can turn out to be inconvenient, impractical and quickly worn out. So how can you choose the best winter overalls from the huge assortment offered by shops and markets?
Instructions
Step 1
Be sure to measure your child at home. When you come to the store or the market, let us know how tall he is, as well as with what margin you would like to take a jumpsuit.
Step 2
From one to four years old, children grow up very quickly. So, if you buy a jumpsuit in the summer with a small margin, most likely, the baby that has been stretched out over the summer and autumn will simply not fit into it in winter.
Step 3
For a child attending kindergarten, a set with Velcro or zippers is best suited. He will be able to independently not only remove it, but also put it on.
Step 4
Be sure to check what material and insulation were used when sewing the overalls. Clothes with natural fillers are, of course, warmer, but less wear-resistant. If you want to buy a jumpsuit for more than one year, choose with a filling based on batting, cotton wool or down. Look for a label on your jumpsuit that says its weight. The larger it is, the warmer the thing.
Step 5
Inspect the inside and outside of the sleeves and pant legs. If the fabric matches, then you will be able to tuck, without fear of wiping them.
Step 6
An excellent option for everyday wear in any weather is a rubberized jumpsuit or one with a water-repellent surface. Just rinse it with water after walking and it will be as good as new again.
Step 7
When choosing a model for a baby up to one year old, first of all, pay attention to the ease and speed of taking off and putting on the overalls, as well as the soundlessness of the fabric, the minimum number of zippers or Velcro. In this case, when you come home, you can easily undress the crumbs who have fallen asleep during a walk, without fear of waking up.
Step 8
Examine the back of the jumpsuit. If you are taking an item for a baby, it should be flat. An elastic belt, jewelry and voluminous patches are absolutely unnecessary for this age.
Step 9
Try to open and close the zippers 5-6 times. Remember: both tight and too light moves indicate in most cases their short service. A protective strip that covers it from the outside will help prevent air from entering through the zipper. And the protection against pinching will help to avoid "bites" of the baby on the chin.
Step 10
Pay attention to the "legs" of the jumpsuit. For a small child, trousers that end with an elastic cuff are best suited. In this case, cold air and snow cannot get inside.
Step 11
If the baby is just starting to walk, give your preference to less voluminous models. Puffy pants and sleeves will only hinder the already awkward movements of the baby.
Step 12
If your child often moves around in a stroller, consider a transformer jumpsuit. If necessary, you can easily re-fasten the zippers or buttons, turn it from overalls into a sleeping bag and vice versa.
Step 13
Focus on the hood - it shouldn't be too big or too small.
Step 14
Remember, too, that the neckline should completely cover the neck. The best option is a low stand-up collar.
Step 15
Removable fleece or fur lining will be a definite plus. You will be able to put on such a jumpsuit for a child from early autumn to the end of spring. This model is much easier to wash and dry.
