Sorry your kids are hyperactive. Mine get plenty of activity.

I am the same way and haven’t really found a solution, it doesn’t matter what I wear. When we have to be outside I usually just walk around the perimeter of the playground to stay moving. My youngest is sensitive to cold too and would also rather not be outside in winter.
My kids are happy with indoor playground and trampoline places when it’s unbearable, we have memberships so it’s cheaper than regular admission.

Fleece-lined tights, with possible base layer underneath. Wool socks. Sturdy boots.

Walk around a bit and you’ll be fine.


I loathe the cold too, but over the year I’ve invested in good winter gear. Ski socks, highly rated mittens that keep my fingers warm in most weather, long underwear from Patagonia, a good quality coat that comes down to below my knees. It helps a lot. There’s even jackets that include heating elements and hand warmers (Hot hands).

There’s no bad weather, just people who are badly dressed for the weather.
