As the weather turns chilly and snow begins to fall, we enter the season of SNOW GEAR! All kinders need to wear weather-appropriate clothing to school including warm boots or shoes, a heavy winter coat, mittens, and hats. Kiddos can also wear snow pants to school. A few tips to keep in mind when choosing snow gear for your child:
Coat
Does it have a hood?
Is it large enough to fit over other cold-weather clothing such as sweatshirts?
Can my child independently put on and take off the coat, including zipping?
Label with your child's name somewhere inside the coat.
Snow Pants
Can my child independently put on and take off the snow pants?
If they choose to wear them during the day...can my child independently undress to use the restroom?
Label with your child's name somewhere inside the pants.
It is inevitable that hats and gloves will go missing throughout the winter. It is important that kindergartners learn responsibility and cold-weather gear is great practice!
We have LOTS and LOTS of snow boots and heavy winter coats at school, if you are in need please let me know or talk to Ms. Nave at the front desk.
Love,
Mrs. Griffith
