gear List
Winter tips: ALL about the layers
- Waterproof boots/shoes (insulated rain boots are a great choice)
- Wool blend socks
- Warm hat/gloves (2 sets)
- Long johns (quick dry)
- Fleece or wool blend sweater
- Fleece or down vest
- Warm coat that can get dirty
- Waterproof rain gear
Polyester Fleece and wool blends are both AWESOME layering choices because they are soft and warm but also wick moisture away from the wearer. In general, PLEASE avoid sending your explorer wearing only cotton (cotton leggings, jeans, etc) once cotton gets wet, it STAYS wet.
Our friends over at Outdoor School Shop have incredible outdoor gear for growing kiddos: Outdoor School Shop
This website has awesome waterproof gear, OAKI
If you have any layers that your kiddos have grown out of that are looking for a new home, we are building a stash of extras for learners to utilize!
HEALTH CONSIDERATIONS
Here are some simple ways we will practice keeping everyone safe during this time. We currently do not require that children wear masks, but they are welcome to do so if they feel more comfortable!
2) If your child exhibits any cold/flu symptoms (coughing/runny nose/sneezing/fever/nausea) within 24 hours of class, please keep them home out of respect to the health of the rest of the class.
3) If your child exhibits cold/flu symptoms at Bloomsbury Farm School, you will be called to come pick them up.
