Come rain or shine

Getting children outside come rain or shine is critical to their physical and mental well being, say psychologists, academics & leading children’s organisations.

“Play is one of the crucial elements of a good childhood,” says Bob Reitemeier of The Children’s Society.  The experts say that play – especially when it takes place outdoors – is crucial to a child’s health.

Living as we do in a climate, which at times can be pretty miserable, getting the kids away from the games console can be challenging!  Someone once said, “there’s no such thing as the wrong weather, just the wrong clothing”

Getting the kids kitted out in the right clobber is half the battle.  Didriksons, the Swedish outdoor clothing manufacturers, have been making waterproof clothing since 1913.  They originally made oilskins for the fishermen around Grundsund on the Western coast of Sweden.  Nowadays their extensive range of technical clothing caters for children as well as fishermen!
