Dress Your Child for Daily Outdoor Play

LCCAA Head Start classes play outside every day, even in the winter time.

Fresh air and outdoor play are vital parts of child development. Please check the weather forecast and make sure your child is dressed appropriately for the temperature and the wind chill.

This includes a warm coat, hat, scarf and gloves. As always, we recommend closed-toe shoes children can run in.

Head Start staff monitor the temperature and children are outside only briefly on the coldest of days. If your child needs cold weather clothing, please contact your family service worker for assistance.
