Clothes for outdoor play

Who doesn't remember the first day of school - that queasy feeling in the stomach and the anticipation of something new? This is not only a big day for the children, but also for the parents. The start of school requires a bit of preparation: What does your child need in terms of clothing? Should my child wear shell clothes or rainwear? How much clothing do you need on the shelf as extra clothes?

It is desirable if your child is dressed so that they feel warm and dry throughout the day. However, this at the same time as the child should be able to run around and play unhindered. Shell clothing is one of our favorite garments and a strong recommendation for the start of school. A pair of shell pants is easy for the child to put on and protects against both wet and wind. With a shell jacket that can easily be supplemented with a fleece sweater or zip jacket for extra warmth, your little one is ready for all kinds of outdoor play. If it is warm outside, it is enough for your child to only wear the zip jacket, if it rains, they put on the shell jacket and when it gets cold, the child should put on both. Please read more about how we think about the layer upon layer principle .

It is not only for your child's sake that it is good that you are well prepared when it comes to clothes for the start of school. This also makes it easier for the teachers at the preschool, as there is always clothing for the weather. There are many children they have to keep track of and it is no fun if a child cannot join in outdoor play just because a hat is lost or pants are soaked.

Tip: Label your child's clothes with a marker or name tags. This makes it easier for everyone to keep track of all items of clothing. Mitten holders may also be worth investing in to prevent your child's mittens from getting their feet and running away.

Clothing for indoor play

Comfortable and soft garments that children can move freely in are the key words when choosing clothing for indoor play. It should also be garments that are comfortable for children to wear under their shell garments or rainwear. At school, however, you don't need as many garments on the shelf as at preschool, but it's always good to be one step ahead.

All our clothes in the Classic Collection are beloved pieces that always come back. The zip jackets, sweatpants, dresses, socks and of course our hats. We are also proud of ourbamboo collection - where you can find your favorites among our soft and colorful garments. Bamboo is an extremely soft and sustainable alternative material for children's clothing, which, like wool, warms in cold weather and cools in hot weather.
