£50 Voucher

I have a £50 voucher for a nice baby shop and am looking to spend it on a winter coat for DD, nearly 1. She is toddling and very slight. We spend a lot of time outdoors and on the beach. I don’t mind topping up the value slightly.
In the running are;

  • Frugi
  • Little Green Radicals
  • Patagonia

Ideally, because that’s how I’m wired, I would like to be able to get matching waterproof dungarees.

Any recommendations? Feeling the pressure of using this lovely gift wisely ☺️

I’ve been very happy with Frugi coats & waterproofs - my (now 6) year old has pretty much only ever had them and they are survive her to be passed on

Frugi were my first choice - such lovely prints!

Jo Jo Maman Bebe did great toddler coats in my day including four in one ones.

They are quite spendy these days though!

I would really recommend an all in one fleece lined waterproof suit for that age as it saves their clothes and they do spend a lot of time falling over. It's also magical if you want to get them out early for a walk, you can just put it straight on over their pyjamas...🙃

She has a few of these and they have worked well. I’ve been a bit worried about whether or not she will find them restrictive now that she’s more active. I will have a look - thanks 🙏

The padded ones are definitely too stuffy but you can get simple fleece lined ones which are brilliant!

I liked the all in one suits at that age and basically until potty training. They tend to be pretty good value on Vinted for items still in good condition so would consider if there’s anything else you want to spend the voucher on. I usually buy the Jojo ones but other brands you mention are good quality too.
