We lost exactly one glove and gained one very opinionated toddler this week, cold weather negotiations have officially started. He wanted to wear his rain boots to daycare in 40 degree weather and I picked my battles. This jacket won because it zips instead of buttons, which matters more than I expected when we're already running five minutes late.

Common questions

Is a sherpa lined flannel jacket warm enough for toddlers in fall?
Yes, for the fall shoulder season a sherpa lined flannel jacket is a good middle layer, warmer than a plain flannel shirt but not as heavy as a winter coat.
What should a toddler wear under a flannel jacket?
A long sleeve tee or henley works well as a base layer, something soft that won't bunch up under the jacket.
Are cargo joggers a good pants option for toddlers?
They're one of the easiest options for a toddler who's still learning to dress himself, an elastic pull on waist with no buttons or zippers to fight.

The jacket stayed zipped the whole ride to daycare, so today counts as a win.
