Taking your baby, toddler, or other young
children outside during the winter is a great
time for them to be able to enjoy the fun
wintertime activities, like building a snowman,
learning how to ice skate, or even joining a
junior hockey league!

Check the weather forecast Find out what the
current temperature is outside, the wind chill,
and what to expect during your outing. If it is
extremely cold outside, never take your child
outdoors for an extended period of time as they
could get frost bite.

 Outfit your stroller with a weather shield -
 If you have little ones that ride in a
stroller, getting a weather shield from our baby
specialty store in Toronto will help block out
the wind and provide an added layer of protection
against the cold. The weather shields also work
great on rainy days to keep your baby or toddler
dry!

Make sure to dress in layers Dressing in
layers helps protect your child from overexposure
to the cold. However, make sure to peel off
layers once they get outside and start playing
because their bodies will heat up and if they
have on too many layers, they could experience
heat exhaustion.

face from the cold. If they resist wearing these
items, turn it into a game with a reward, like

gloves, and scarves on the longest will win and
surprise once we get home. For the reward, it
could a cup of hot chocolate with extra
marshmallows and their favourite treat or being
allowed to watch an episode of their favourite
program.

Limit the amount of time spent outside with
schedule breaks As adults, our bodies resist
the cold better than babies, toddlers, and young
children. As such, you will want to limit the
length of time spent outside and bring them in
every so often to warm up before

redressing to go back out and play some more. A
good schedule to use during the winter is to go
outside for about an hour before lunchtime, come
back in, peel off the layers, eat lunch, take a
short nap, and then spend about another hour
outside in the afternoon.
