Dressing for Outdoor Play
If you forget any of the items
If your child is not ready to play outside then you must take your child home.
You can return once you have all the items needed for a safe and warm day out.
If it’s easier, please feel free to leave a “daycare set" with me if you are worried about not remembering every item each day.

- We will be going out daily, weather permitting
- I decide if the weather is too bad or not, so make sure you bring the following items daily
- We will not play outside if the temperature is -15+ with the wind chill
- We can get dirty so nothing fancy
- If your child is 3 years old or older he/she must be able to put these items on and take them off him/herself or with very little help, as I will be helping the younger children
