Keep Kids Warm in Style with Cosy Thermal Layers

A cold child equals a miserable child – that's a fact. As soon as kids feel a nip in the air, their smiles disappear, no matter how much fun their outdoor activity is. The good news? There's a simple solution to keeping little ones warm: layers, layers and more layers. Start with one of our thermal kids' vests, which are insulating but breathable. Choose a long-sleeve thermal top if it's really chilly and a thick knitted jumper. Layer a lightweight padded gilet under their winter coat if they're going to be outside for a long time and slip long johns under their jeans. Our thermals come in a range of warmth levels – use the handy thermometer symbols to decide which level your child needs.

Little ears, fingers and toes get cold quickly, so finish off their outfits with playful yet insulating winter accessories. Our knitted hats comes in an array of different colours, from vibrant hot pink to purple, so there's sure to be a shade they'll wear. If the forecast is snowy, choose this cosy knitted balaclava to add some whimsical vintage charm to their snow-day attire. They'll probably lose at least one pair of gloves this winter – try our three pack of kids' gloves, which stretch to accommodate growing fingers. Mini movie fans will love our Pokémon and Frozen scarf and mitten sets, which also make great festive gifts. Finish with warm thermal accessories, like our super cosy tights and socks, and they'll be snug as a bug.
