How to dress your kids for Spring

Spring is almost here and temperatures are already rising every day! So, what should you know about dressing your kid for spring? We'll give you great information about it, but if you feel something is missing, feel free to leave us a comment.

Since we're making the transition from winter to spring, the weather is still somehow cold. It is important to know what you're facing everyday so check the weather before going out and dressing your kid. Remember that in spring there are huge temperature variations throughout the day, so you have to be ready to face them!
Montreal's short spring is a little rainy, so we recommend a warm and waterproof jacket to avoid getting soaked when playing outside.

You can also start forgetting about those big bulky snow boots and switch to confotable closed shoes (no sandals yet!). Again, they should be waterproof, unless you like soaked little feet. Your child will thank you for it! Remember that snow is usually melting and you might find muddy conditions, so this tip is particularly important. Rubber boots are also great for the puddles!

Dressing in layers is also a good idea. Remember the winter tip about the t-shirt underneath a sweater, but always have the jacket ready. If its too hot you can remove layers, if its too cold, your kid will be ready for it!

For the nicer and sunny days, remember to put on sunscreen and a hat! You wouldn't want any sunburns on your little one. Don't underestimate the sun!

Now go and enjoy this short and nice weather while it lasts!
