But bear in mind that, in warmer climes, puddle suits can get pretty sweaty. Opt for a suit that’s just going to keep the rain out and add warmth with fleece layers as and when needed. You really do get what you pay for with waterproofs, and it’s worth looking out for some of these extra features. You might not want all of them but consider which ones would make a real difference to you. Consider the age of your child: While all-in-ones are really snug and keep any hint of damp out, if your child is at the age where they’re potty training, or perhaps going to the loo independently but having difficulty with zips and buttons, a two-piece puddle suit might be a better choice.
