Trendy Tot Thursday (25/09/2014)
Another Friday comes by, and here is this weeks Trendy Tot Thursday! I’m only getting to write this now as I have a bit of a poorly and tearful Cracker cuddling in next to me after I had to pick him up early from the childminders. Luckily Biscuit is still there and having a fun time, even if her twin isn’t there.
We take the twins swimming every week as Rob and I both feel it is very important for them to be safe and happy in the water. Rob feels especially strongly about this having grown up on a small island surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea.
Over the months we have found a problem in that they both get quite cold once they’re out of the pool and out of their wetsuits. They have a lovely warm shower and then are wrapped up in snuggly towels, but are still always quite chilly. When they were little they had fleecy babygrows with feet, but since they want to walk everywhere we had to find something a little more age appropriate.
We found ‘Après Splash’ towel suits from Splash About, here. They consist of tracksuit-style trousers and a hooded jumper made of supersoft bamboo towelling material.
On the way to swimming this week it was warm enough that Biscuit and Cracker just wore the trousers with little vests from Primark and their Clarks doodles sandals.
On the way home, and at home afterwards, they wore the hooded jumpers too to keep them lovely and warm.
They are obviously so comfortable in these tracksuits and love having them on. People always comment on them, including the manager at the swimming pool we went to on holiday, people on the beach when they wore them after splashing in the sea and people at the gym. The general consensus is that they’d sell lots of adult size ones if they were available! I’d definitely get one!!
I hope you enjoy reading our Trendy Tot Thursday as much as I enjoyed writing it! Check out The Mother Geek and Clearly Bex for more!
Hope to see you again next week for another Trendy Tot Thursday, and please feel free to stop by and say ‘hi’ whenever you have time!
