We are going to Homewood in Tahoe next week, and the forecast for the day my son has lessons (beginner hopefully intermediate soon) is 35. (And that's an improvement, as I originally had him for a day forecasted to be a high of 27, but I was able to switch days). I know that's nothing for most of you, but for us from the SF bay area, where my 7 year old son refuses to wear long pants on a regular day, this could be turn south quickly.
Advice for dressing to stay warm?
- I have those hand warmer packs, but haven't used them in forever. Will those work well in his mittens/boots, or will then end up making him sweaty and thus cold? Will they do any good inside coat/pants inside pockets or do they need to be closer to the skin?
- Two base layers? Two fleece layers? An extra layer of vest so it's not as constricting?
- I have a thin baklava that I think he'll be ok with since I told him it's a ninja mask. I also have a neoprene mouth mask, but he's said he thought it was "weird" and I dont think I'll be able to convince him to wear it.
Thanks!
