Play Suits for Winter

Children's clothing must be comfortable. All their garments, especially play suits, should permit freedom and natural movement of the body. Now that outside exercise is being emphasized more and more, clothes which will keep the youngster warm on a cold day and still allow freedom in play are in great demand. The weight of these garments must be as light as possible, because too heavy clothing does not encourage play and may cause posture defects. The choice of a fabric is very important in determining the actual weight of the garment, but the selection of a design which will allow free movement and an even distribution of weight is equally necessary.
