But is it convenient? Modern manufacturers of children's outerwear came up with another option.

At what temperature to wear
No matter how good the jumpsuit is, wear it in the right temperature, because the sweating child has every chance to catch a cold.
From 0 -2 degrees, experts advise to dress the child in winter overalls. This rule applies especially to newborn babies sleeping during a walk. They do not move, and therefore they should be dressed warmer. But do not even get involved in the transformation of the child "in the cabbage." A shirt, socks and a slip are all that is needed at this temperature for a newborn. It is recommended to take a blanket or blanket with you and cover the child with it if necessary.
Upon reaching 1 year kids begin to move actively. And if the layer of filler in winter overalls reaches 330 grams, do not rush to dress him in this warm and even hot robe at zero temperature. The same rule applies to overalls on sheepskin.

Heaters
An important aspect in the choice of overalls is its filler.
On sheepskin
Sheepskin jumpsuits are very popular among children up to a year. It is caused by hypoallergenic materials and unsurpassed thermal properties.
Unfortunately, in a jumpsuit with a full sheepskin finish, it is difficult for a baby to walk older.

Synthetic
Synthetic fillers are a frequent choice of parents of children after a year. They possess:
- ease;
- good thermal properties;
- subtlety.
The last point concerns such new heaters as a thermofit, tinsuleyt or shelter.
Today less quality is sintepon. Products from it quickly lose their presentable appearance and are not intended for severe winters.
How to choose
The first important step when choosing a good winter overalls for a boy is his size. Modern manufacturers often make it double, for example, size 86-92, suitable for a child and a height of 86 cm and a height of 92. However, in the first case, the overalls will have a certain margin and will have to bend the sleeves and trousers, in the second - the overalls will sit more neatly, but for the next season it may be small.
The layer of winter insulation varies from 220 grams to 330 grams. It is worth saying that this is a very significant difference. If your child is active, you should not choose the warmest option, because the baby can be hot. If the baby likes to ride on a sled, hesitates on his feet, choose a warmer model.
For the child, self-dressing, the presence of comfortable zippers and buttons - a guarantee of convenience. They should hold tight, but open when you press the children's handles. The fitting option here is especially important.
The top fabric for the jumpsuit also needs attention. For the kid walking on the playground, only waterproof fabric will do. To date, the choice of many mothers has become a membrane.
Details such as cuffs and elastic bands on the sleeves and trousers are able to prevent the ingress of snow. Take a closer look at the little things, because they help keep your child warm and healthy.
