When going on a winter walk with a child, mothers and grandmothers often wonder whether their child will freeze and not put on a couple more blouses and pants. In order not to be tormented by guesses, you need to know how to dress children correctly in the cold season.
Instructions
Step 1
Today, children's clothing is made from high-tech materials that ensure both heat retention and maximum comfort. The principle of the number of layers "as for oneself plus one" is relevant only for an infant lying in a stroller. Light sets of outerwear with padding polyester, hats with isosoft and thinsulate, fleece overalls, underwear and helmets, various thermal underwear - these and many other things are designed to provide the child with warmth during a walk and allow him to move freely.
Step 2
Don't be afraid of synthetics: they keep you warm as well as natural materials. Moreover, some manufacturers of children's clothing and footwear directly recommend wearing underwear and tights made of polyester, polyamide, thermolight under their products. But stereotypes are difficult to defeat, and parents still prefer a thick woolen suit to a comfortable thin fleece jumpsuit.
Step 3
Try not to wrap a child, especially an active one, because under numerous sweaters, blouses and leggings, he can sweat, and then get hypothermic and get sick. Do not tie your baby's nose and mouth with a scarf: warm, moist air forms under it, which threatens to catch a cold, and the cold will not bring such harm.
Step 4
Depending on the air temperature outside the window, the set of clothes for walking in winter may vary. For example, from +5 to -5 ° C, put on underwear, a long-sleeved T-shirt, tights, a woolen or mixed hat, a scarf, a membrane or padding polyester overalls, woolen gloves or mittens, winter shoes. If it is from -5 to -10 ° C outside, put on a turtleneck, tights, a woolen hat, a scarf and mittens, an overalls filled with polyester or membrane, and winter shoes over underwear or thermal underwear.
Step 5
When the air temperature drops below -10 ° C, dress the child more seriously: underwear or thermal underwear, tights, fleece overalls or woolen suit, overalls filled with polyester, down or sheepskin, woolen socks, woolen hat on sheepskin, scarf, waterproof mittens with fur, felt boots or winter boots. If the baby is in the stroller, add another layer of clothing.
Step 6
Keep in mind that these guidelines are not universal and be guided by your child. If he gets cold or sweats, take into account mistakes and adjust the number of layers of underwear under the winter overalls or set next time.
