As we all know regulating your personal climate, ie keeping yourself cool and dry whilst working hard is a difficult matter, especially in humid climates such as we have here in Wales. It's even more difficult for kids who are either so wrapped up in the excitement of it all that they don't notice they are cold and wet until it's too late or who get unhappy straight away if they are not comfortable enough.
The best way to keep your children content and enjoying the outdoors is to keep them comfortable and the place where they will feel the effects of moisture the most is against the skin, which is why it is important to choose the best things you can to move any perspiration or dampness rapidly away from their body. The most efficient way of moving moisture is by wearing man-made fabrics (remember cotton may be cool for lounging around in, but it soaks up any moisture that you make and holds it next to your body). The way in which they are woven is also important.
A garment that is best suited to all eventualities is required for rapidly growing youngsters that are into everything, Helly Hansen Lifa is available in childrens fit, and will be as warm and as wicking as the extremely popular adults Helly Hansen gear.
