Are you struggling to get outside with the cold temperatures, snow, and ice? While some adventures might look like building a snowman in the backyard and others might look like snowshoeing in the backcountry, we have some tips and tricks to help making winter adventures with kids a little easier. Layers - -2 piece suits once kiddos are out of diapers is key! [Fun tip: A 5 Gallon Paint Bucket with Toilet Training Seat works great in the car] -Base layer (wool or synthetics), mid-layer fleece, waterproof or water resistant outer layer (ie. MEC Bunting Suit) -Neck warmer, toque/winter hat, waterproof boots, mittens/gloves For on the trail - -Ice cleats/crampons - for kids, use size XS and then tie on with a zip tie -Snowshoes and poles -Make sure to follow signage on adventures! -Pack a sled!!
