• Trousers and jackets made of durable and weatherproof material

• Suitable models for fall and winter

• Rachel Trost, educator at the HABA FAMILYGROUP Kinderhaus, explains what's important during the childcare settling in period.

In fall, many children will have their first days at a preschool or nursery. Playing outside is an integral part of the program from the very beginning. JAKO-O mud clothing protects children from the fall weather so that they can romp around and play while staying dry.

The basis is the mud pants, a classic at JAKO-O. The double-layer knee design means that the pants are particularly sturdy and can withstand rough play. A custom name tag can be placed in the transparent window of the practical pocket. Anyone who wants to explore the winter landscape can wear robust overalls. These not only keep the kidney area warm; neon and reflective details ensure a modern look and feel even when it gets dark earlier. The long leg zip makes them easy to put on and durable Oxford inserts protect children's knees. The concept is convincing: JAKO-O robust overalls have been tested by the "Waldkindergärten" (forest preschools) and are recommended for active "outdoor play children."

Wear the pants with a matching rain jacket for timeless style. Oxford inserts mean that it is also very robust and completely rainproof. And for colder temperatures, the snugly lined rain parka keeps everything dry, even in mud and snow. The elongated back keeps everything warm and therefore also fits over jeans. Thanks to the reflective details, the parka is an attention-grabber even in the darker months of the year.

"A relaxed settling in period starts in the mind" – interview with Rachel Trost, educator at the HABA FAMILYGROUP Kinderhaus
Settling in to daycare is a special time for children and parents. It's the first time the child is all on its own away from mom and dad – Rachel Trost has some tips.

Ms. Trost, what can parents do to make sure the settling in period goes well?
Rachel Trost: It can naturally be challenging to leave the child with strangers. A relaxed settling in period starts in the mind – children sense whether their parents trust the process and the daycare staff, and this affects their well-being. At the same time, children in daycare are already learning so many social regulations and skills, assessing people and situations. In this respect, it is important that parents feel comfortable so that the child can openly accept the many advantages of daycare.

What can make the process easier for the child?
Rachel Trost: Environment, people, daily routine – at the beginning, everything is new for the child. It helps to have consistency to create familiarity. If the children miss their parents, it can help to have a photo of the parents with them. Preschool backpacks even have extra compartments for this. Another thing that works well is a cuddly childcare toy that becomes a constant companion. The dummy rabbit is therefore available in a double pack – one stays at home, the other at childcare. The pacifier is within reach to create familiarity and security in the new environment.

What does a childcare day look like for children?
Rachel Trost: In the morning, they eat the breakfast they brought from home and then we go outside. Every day, no matter what the weather! This makes it all the more important that the children have weatherproof, robust clothing with them. In summer that means sun protection and hats, in fall and winter we need mud clothing.
