VikingKids weather



So how are we at VikingKids making the most of the snow? First things first, unlike much of the country it seems, we weren't snowed in today so were able to make it to our stock room and all orders were shipped as scheduled. As you can imagine we're very busy!

The winter range is selling out fast, however we still have our cosy, fully waterproof winter coats in a selection of colours in most sizes, with winter salopettes in the same material also still available in most sizes. The hugely popular pompom hats went fast, but we still have a small number of purple hats in the 1-year and 6-year sizes. The black winter hat is also still available in the 1-year-size - there is nothing to beat this incredibly soft, warm hat for snugness! The lovely microfleece cap by Nanook is still available in all sizes.

The all-in-one snowsuit has now sold out, as have the winter gloves. We still have a small number of the baby snowsuit in the smallest size, 60 cm, which is actually plenty big enough for most 6-7-month olds, and the ever-popular fleece overall is back in stock in all colours and sizes. The waterproof mittens have temporarily sold out in the 2- and 4-year sizes but will be back again next month.



We did have the opportunity to make the obligatory snow man today, kitted out in our full winter outfits. Note the "hair" devised following the 5-year-old's insistence that a hat wouldn't be creative enough...

Exhausted by a morning building snowmen in preschool and an afternoon of snowball fights in the park, the 3-year-old decided to take a nap, protected by the comfort of his snowsuit and not the slightest bit worried by the snow falling ever heavier around (and on!) him.

We ended the day in traditional Swedish fashion by building a snowball lantern - just like my own childhood!
