Gloves or Mittens for 5 year old - and where to buy

Hi,

DS will be 5 a few weeks before we go at Easter. We have his other clothes but not gloves or mittens. I'm thinking mittens for ease, and he'll be in the snow garden all week so won't have to hold onto chairlifts so these should be OK shouldn't they??

Any suggestions on where to buy, preferably online?

Thanks

I think DS had mittens when we first took him and he was just 4, and he learned to ski and take button-pulls fine with them on.

Decathlon is cheap!

Have a look at Matalan

Mittens are much warmer.

Have you got a tog 24, or mountain warehouse near you? We've had good stuff for our ds's from them in the past.
