$1 tip to keep hands warm & dry in snow & cold weather.

in Motherhood3 years ago (edited)

Fellow moms, how many times has your child went outside in the snow to make a snowman & 5 minutes later they come back in the house because their hands are wet & freezing from their gloves? Or how many times have YOU experienced cold hands while wearing gloves? I wanted to share a tip that I tried to help my son & I to help keep our hands warm and dry during the cold weather.

Latex vinyl gloves is the answer! You wear them under your gloves and they keep your hands dry and warm! Typical fabric knitted gloves have small holes which allow cold air and water ( wet snow ) to pass through. This is why our hands become cold quickly. If you can shine a flashlight through the gloves, then you will see how little they protect your hands. ( see my picture for reference)

You can purchase these latex gloves pretty cheap. I bought a package of 6 at the Dollar Store in the cleaning supplies aisle. $1 for 3 pairs ( $1.06 to be exact) Also, they are reusable!

This also works great for people on blood thinners, as they tend to be cold more than usual. I now have my Dad wearing these under his gloves too.

Give it a try & let me know what you think 😊

that's a pretty handy idea! 💡

luckily spring is here and gloves are put of the picture for now but that'll do great for the next snowball battle eventually. Wearing those for longer would get pretty sweaty and uncomfortable, though, I'd imagine.

Yes Spring is indeed here however where I am ( Michigan ) haven't packed away the winter coats just yet. If you are familiar with Michigan, you know you may need to use the furnace and ac on the same day 😜

Latex gloves beneath regular gloves-- ingenious!

My mother is at that age where she feels the need to wear gloves even in Spring, so I will relay this tip to her.
