We’ve been using this Roobear rain suit for about a week now, both at home and at daycare, and I’m honestly really impressed. I run a home daycare, so I’m quite picky about the quality and functionality of outdoor gear, and this one checks all the boxes so far.
My daughter is 3 years old and I got the 3T. It fits slightly big, which is exactly what I wanted so I can layer a fleece one-piece underneath (it’s still pretty cold here in Quebec even though it’s technically spring).
What I love most is how flexible it is. She can move, run, climb, and play comfortably without it feeling stiff or bulky. She’s been playing outside in snow, slush, and puddles, rolling around and getting fully into it, and she stayed warm and completely dry every time. The water really just beads and rolls right off, and it dries super quickly afterward.
I also got the matching water mittens and they’re amazing for this in-between season. The water is still icy cold here, and she was able to play in it comfortably with warm hands. They’re not meant for long periods in colder weather, but for wet play they’re perfect. If we’re staying out longer, I just switch to winter mittens.
Overall, I’d definitely recommend this to any parent looking for a great in-between season rain suit. I’m especially excited to keep using it once the real rain and mud season kicks in!
