Children's raincoat

How to dress a child in rainy weather is an urgent issue that worries many parents. Walking with an umbrella is not always convenient, so you should think about choosing a children's raincoat.

Designers made sure that children's clothing for rainy weather was presented in a large assortment:

• Poncho raincoat is characterized by a free cut and the presence of a hood. Such a model will provide reliable protection, freedom of movement and comfort, so long walks are possible with a rain poncho.

• A raincoat-raincoat is perfect for an active child, for whom even rain will not interfere with a walk. Most often, such models are chosen for small children.

• A raincoat in the form of a jacket or overalls is the maximum protection that will work even in heavy rain. In such clothes, elastic bands are provided in the area of ​​the sleeves and hem on the jacket, due to which the water has no chance to get under the raincoat.

Regarding the length, which will be optimal for a children's raincoat, there are few options. It is better to choose the model that will reach only the knees.

All the same, the children are active and mobile, and the cloak should not create difficulties for movement and not be buried in puddles every time the child wants to sit down. You will not be mistaken if you prefer a raincoat with a length at the level of the middle of the thigh or slightly lower, but not longer than the knee.

The torment of choice will not torment you if you follow some simple rules:

• Seams require increased attention, since it is mainly from them that the ability of a raincoat to not pass water depends. In children's models, the fabric is not stitched, but soldered or glued.Other options cannot be considered.

• The size must be selected carefully, given the moment that the cloak should be free. No fitted models. Remember that the raincoat will be worn on a sweater or jacket.

• Lining is not a required element of a baby raincoat. Here you can rely on your personal preferences and be based on the season. For the summer period, a raincoat with a lining is useless, but for autumn and early spring it is better to choose a model with a lining in cotton or polyester.

• The style is selected solely on the age, gender and desires of the child. For kids it is better to choose a jacket with pants, but for a 3-year-old child you can buy a separate cloak.

• The hood should be in a raincoat, it will allow to refuse an umbrella. It is better if the hood will be regulated by means of clamps or elastic band will be provided in its design. A hat should fit under the hood. A great option is a cloak with a hood on which there is a visor. In this case, the drops will not get on the face.

• Sleeves as well as the hood must have braces, adjustments or elastic bands. But if you could not find such a model, then stop on a raincoat with long and free sleeves that will cover your palms and reach the base of your fingers.

• Buttons or zippers should be considered as fasteners, but not buttons at all.

• The collar can be of any design, but in any case, it should well cover the neck of the child, leaving no chance for rain drops to get under the cloak.

When choosing a raincoat for a child, it is necessary to carefully study the material from which it was made. For the outside, synthetic fabrics are often chosen that do not leak moisture and are well worn. The clap here has no chance.

But water resistance is not the only requirement that is imposed on the outer material of the raincoat. In any case, the body must breathe; membrane materials can do this very well. If you were not lucky enough to find a raincoat from such a fabric, then choose PVC or nylon, but check for ventilation holes. Most often they are located in the armpits.

Any material should keep its shape well, do not deform when bent, do not form folds, and even more so fractures. Thick material is also not the best option for a children's raincoat, since in such clothes the child will be uncomfortable and hard.

This step in choosing a raincoat can be entrusted to the child, but he still has to wear this raincoat. As practice shows, the boys choose models of blue, red or green colors, on which there is an image of a favorite cartoon character. As for girls, here most often the choice falls on pastel colors and bright colors (pink, yellow, purple, blue). On cloaks that girls like, in most cases there is a large print or small pattern. It is the parents who evaluate the material and the quality of the seams, and for the child the appearance of the cloak, its brightness and expressiveness are more important.

Many manufacturers produce raincoats for children, so there are no problems with the choice. Very good options for waterproof clothing are presented by Kaste navy, Twins, Barkito and Kidorable.

An excellent model was introduced by Kaste navy. Raincoat raincoat is made of three types of fabrics. The top layer is dense, but thin, does not pass water and protects from wind. The second layer is responsible for maintaining heat and removing moisture that is produced by the body. And finally, the third layer warms, provides comfort and the ability to breathe. Such a model can be considered an example of an ideal children's raincoat.

It is clear that you will take a walk in one cloak - you need to select additional elements for it. The girl will be crazy about handbags made of waterproof material. To match the cloak, you need to choose rubber boots and an umbrella.
