With restrictions meaning indoor play opportunities are limited, it’s even more important that children can head outside to blow off steam – even on gloomy days.

During those changeable weeks at the end of winter and beginning of spring, your little ones will need wet weather gear that’s showerproof but lightweight enough that they won’t overheat when they’re tearing around the local park or playground.

In preparation for the spring showers, here are five of the best waterproofs for kids…
