Same. We started when DS was a baby and changing after and wiping his hair down so he didn't get in his bed to nap with pollen/allergens. Still change after the park.

Wipe his hair down? Oh my.

My kid spends a lot of time outside at PK though, so she often changes when she comes home from that. But that's more her call. She doesn't love playing in the dirt (NOT something she gets from us, we are very outdoorsy, but she's always been a little horrified by dirt) so sometimes she will request a change of clothes even though nothing looks visibly dirty. Perhaps she and your mom would get along!
