RECOMMENDED GEAR FOR Warm Weather - May thrOuGH late September

- FOOTWEAR: rain boots/croc-type water shoes/natives (NO FLIP FLOPS) 

- CLOTHING: light, summer-time layers that can dry quickly and get messy (read: mud, paint, strawberries, chicken doo doo)

- HEADWEAR: ball cap or sun hat 

- EYE PROTECTION: sunglasses 

What To Pack In YOUR Bag

- water bottle (this is a must) 

- lunch and snack 

- chapstick

- sunscreen 

- bug spray 

- extra socks (even an extra pair of shoes is helpful) 

- a full extra change of clothes 

Here are some ideas of helpful winter layers to keep your explorer comfy cozy

- Waterproof boots/shoes (insulated bogs are an amazing hybrid choice)

- Wool blend socks

- Warm hat/gloves 

- Long johns 

- Fleece or wool blend sweater

- Fleece or down vest

- Warm coat that can get dirty 

- Quick dry pants or snow bibs - snow bibs have been an awesome choice because they keep the explorer warm and cozy AND protected from the wet ground

- Raincoat

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 (even though cotton is the COZIEST indoors) because once cotton gets wet, it STAYS wet.
