Baby Mittens

Investing on winter wear for toddlers and infants must never be taken for granted. Babies and little children need proper clothing provided by their parents or guardian, there should be no excuse on this. According to Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, clothing is one of the basic needs of humans, especially more to a baby who is helpless in his state. Clothing is a need that must be answered. It is not just about wearing fashion and being fashionable; clothing protects our bodies against nature's extreme temperature. Babies need much more of this protection since their body systems way of maintaining and producing heat may not yet be fully developed. In countries where people experience harsh winter, thick clothing has been an indispensable item. Winter wear such as infant snow boots, toddler snow boots, infant and toddler snow suit, infant mittens, toddler gloves are just some of the items and winter accessories that must be bought by parents to protect their children from frostbite, hypothermia and other diseases that may be acquired because of too much weather.




Mittens are used for infants while gloves are for little children, especially toddlers. Both provide warmth and comfort to freezing exposed hands of infants and toddlers. The only difference is that gloves have compartments for each finger; mittens do not have. This difference however, is very significant in providing warmth for your infant or child. When it is not too cold gloves are mostly used because it provides insulation and therefore gives warmth, mitten however allow the fingers to fold hence, providing friction as fingers rub against each other.
