Lands' End recommends the Snow Tech Boots for kids and the Trello Boots for adults, which feature a feature a gripping sole to avoid slipping when there is ice on the ground.

Tip 3: Add extra warmth with next-to-skin layers
Staying warm in frigid temperatures starts with a base layer.
For children, add extra layers to keep warm when it's time for snow day play.

Lands' End Thermaskins pull moisture away from the skin to keep it warm and dry. The synthetic fabric also dries quickly, which is a huge advantage over cotton long johns.

Tip 4: Protect the extremities
Most body heat is lost through uncovered heads and other extremities, so hats, gloves and scarves are essential. Choose coordinating accessories that are soft against the skin, but are durable, made from materials such as merino wool, nylon and microfleece.

Select nylon/fleece lined gloves and hats, such as the ThermaCheck accessories, for the ultimate protection during severe weather.

Tip 5: For children - know the school requirements
Ask your child's teacher what the expectations are for recess play during winter weather. At some schools, snow pants must be worn whereas other schools only require a winter coat, accessories and snow boots.

Choose snow pants, like the Kids' Reinforced Knee Insulated Squall Pants, with knee patches and scuff guards for durability along with easy-on features for children to dress themselves.
