I am not made for cold weather.
Many sports begin in one season and end in another. Often, there is wind and rain, even sleet or snow at the beginning of baseball season! Sometimes, it seems as if that is the same day.
I recently wrote about Summer Gear for Sports Parents. Obviously heat can be dangerous and we need to make sure we stay cool with rising temperatures. But being cold is miserable.
I want to support and cheer for my kids while staying warm and dry.
I’ve loved seeing my kids play soccer and baseball and do ice skating. I’m so proud of all they have tried and learned and how they continue to improve in their endeavors.
Baseball is normally a warm weather sport, but there have been times in early spring or late fall that have been miserably cold and wuthery. Also, ice skating rinks are often very cold for spectators. I like being prepared and staying warm.

My girls have never been into sports but my friends son always played football and twice a week she was stood on the side lines and was always telling me how important a thick coat, gloves and a warm hat was. I am sure she would have had a heated blanket if they had been a big thing a few years ago. hehehe
I’m not made for cold weather, either! I’ve got to try out the warmers you suggested. Thanks for sharing this post with us at the Will Blog for Comments #47 linkup. Hope to see you sharing more next time at #48, which opens Monday.
Give me all of the layers at this time of the year. Very useful round-up Jennifer! :) #MMBC
