So far this year
Autumn has mostly been warm
But this week the temperatures are set to plummet
And for the first time in Kent
Will see daytime numbers in single figures
Rather than staying indoors
It is time to wrap up warm
And get outside
With four young children
Any days spent solely inside
Do not end well
Even with a large open plan living space
We still find ways to get under one another’s feet
Outside time is critical for a large, young family
In all weathers
We adhere by a famous Alfred Wainwright quote
“There’s no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing.”
And so as autumn races on toward winter
We will ensure that we all have suitable clothing
Starting with Bea
The most likely of the four to moan
The most likely of the four to fall
For our beautiful rainbow hurricane
Her outdoor adventures began this season
With Jo Jo Maman Bebe
To ensure she was suitably covered from top to bottom
For all weathers
We went for a coat and waterproof trousers
As Bea is newly potty trained
I did not want anything
All in one
So coat and trousers it was
I chose this reversible coat
Waterproof on one side
Soft fleece on the other
Perfect all weather wear
In a range of bright colours
And funky prints
I chose a large bright floral for Bea
To match her large bright personality
With a firey red fleece
Her favourite colour
The warm waterproof coat is available for children
From 18 months to 6 years old
The coat is lovely and thick
It is also light
So though it keeps Bea warm
It does not restrict her movement
The cuffs mean that Bea always has her hands free
And no damp or chill goes up her sleeves
Bea loves her coat
It keeps her warm
It keeps her dry
And she looks super cute in it
She wears the coat
All the time
For work
And for play
To go with the coat
Bea has some post box red
These pull on bottoms
Are super soft
And puddle proof
Perfect for farm duties
Days at the beach
Garden play
And tree climbing
As well as keeping water out
They keep the wind off
And add an extra layer of protection
Should Bea happen to take a tumble
It means it matters not
If she chooses to sit on wet grass
Mess about on the river
In the river
Paddle in the sea
These trousers stop our beautiful Bea
Ruining her clothes in the first five minutes of leaving the house!
They are also going to be perfect play trousers
Should we be lucky enough this winter
To see any snow
Anyone who reads my blog
Will know that I love Jo Jo Maman Bebe
They are my first port of call
For nursing and maternity wear
And now I am trusting them with dressing
With protecting
My little people too
Provides great value for money too
The lovely coat costs £39
And in my humble opinion
Is worth every penny
With Jo Jo Maman Bebe voucher codes often available
It becomes even more affordable
That pack into a bag in the pocket
To carry around
Are £19
And will buy you hours and hours
Of family fun outside
Whatever the weather!
