I regularly buy from Cotswold at www.cotswold.outdoor.com. I don't think that Hawkshead do kiddies stuff, but you could try them at www.hawkshead.com. Also Millets. Hth.

How old is he? I've got several pairs in various sizes which ds (now 3) has now grown out of.

Got these for dd and they are really great

They have lots on the website

Hi Lunasea,
Ds 1 is 7 and ds2 is 18 months. Would be interested to hear what you have.

Love Muddy Puddles (see CDs link). We have the puddle pack jackets and the £10 ish waterproof trousers.

Years ago Muddy Puddles was recommended to me on Mumsnet, just before we holidayed in Yorkshire/Lake District. They are brilliant, still buy from them now.

Thankyou, I'm off to look at the muddy puddles web site.

Probably have some in the 18 months to 3 years range - but they're in the attic, and with dh away this week I daren't go up there until ds is in bed, otherwise he's liable to follow me up the ladder! Will try to have a look later if I get a chance.

Children's Warehouse have some excellent ones which have lasted my dds 2 years - and counting.

LunarSea · 13/01/2005 12:55

Haven't forgotten Bensmum3, just haven't managed to shake off the attentions of ds for long enough to get up to the attic yet!

bensmum3 · 13/01/2005 19:25

Thankyou, I won't take the plunge and order any new ones just yet then.

They're on sale in Blooming Marvellous at the moment. HTH

muddy puddles are fantastic... just bought the next size up for dd at bump to 3... they're having a sale on at the moment and they're £12 instead of the ordinary £22 from muddy puddles website... so get in ther quick... if you do go for them, check out the sizing from the MP website, as they are very generous... even though dd is small for her age (3 half!) she's in size 18-24 months bib and brace...
