Dressing for the weather

 As I am sure you have noticed our weather day to day continually changes and sometimes it doesn't even reflect the same season!  That is why it's important to make sure that each child is dressed appropriately for the changing weather conditions. Obviously, with it being winter and certain days being definitely colder than others, dressing in layers is very important so that the child stays warm but does not over heat. Wearing breathable layers under winter gear is important as it keeps skin covered but each layer can be removed should the conditions change. Covering exposed skin to the elements with gloves and hats as well as a coat will make winter outside time much more enjoyable for the child. On days where the weather fluctuates, long sleeves and even a light jacket are fine for outdoor play.  No matter the changing weather, our AOFC kids love to be outdoors and knowing what to wear allows them the opportunity to have fun while being able to adapt to the fluctuating temperatures.
