How to dress Baby in summer?

Summer is slowly settling in, the days are getting longer and the sun is caressing the cheeks of little ones. For babies, this season is synonymous with softness and discoveries: bright light, walks in the fresh air, the freshness of light laundry against the skin... But when temperatures rise, a question often comes up: how to dress Baby in summer so that it remains protected, comfortable and free to move? At BONTON, we like to dress Baby as we compose a summer: with lightness, soft materials and cuts designed to let it grow, explore and marvel.

Favor natural and breathable materials

The comfort of Baby in summer depends above all on the choice of materials. At this time of year, it is essential to opt for light, natural, and above all breathable textiles. Organic cotton, linen and especially cotton gauze are our allies. These soft, airy materials naturally regulate body temperature and let the skin breathe, without ever irritating it. For the little ones, whose skin is still fragile, these materials are obvious. Cotton gauze, in particular, lends itself wonderfully to summer outfits: supple, light and naturally wrinkled, it accompanies the movements of Baby without bothering him, from the deckchair to his first hesitant steps.

Simple, well-designed outfits for little ones

At home and when out and about, babies need clothes that are easy to put on, loose and soft. No need to multiply layers: a Body short sleeves in Organic cotton, a lightweight romper or playsuit fluid is more than enough for hot days. For those who are starting to move around alone, we will choose shapes that leave the legs free, such as a Dungaree in linen or bloomers combined with a light top. And as soon as we step outside, we remember to protect our heads: a hat or bucket hat will be perfect to avoid sunburn.

Adapt outfits to different times of the day

In summer, the temperature often varies between times of the day. For a stroller walk in the morning or late afternoon, you can slip into the bag a little Cardigan in fine mesh, a Blouse in light cotton or a diaper to place on the legs in case of wind. These parts make it possible to cover Baby without weighing it down. In case of extreme heat, it may happen that Baby sweats: it is then important to be able to change it easily. Dry, breathable clothing helps prevent irritation and promotes comfort, even during an impromptu nap in the shade.

Dress well Baby at night

When the room warms up, dress Baby to sleep can quickly become a headache. However, a few simple guidelines are enough. Below 24°C, a Body lightweight short sleeve or Pajamas in fine cotton, accompanied by a Sleeping bag summer, remains the best option. If the temperature rises above 26°C, Baby can sleep simply Body or even in a diaper, as long as you are well placed on a soft and breathable sheet. To know if he is too hot, the most reliable way is to touch the back of his neck: if it is sweaty, lighten it up a little. If it's fresh, it's perfect.

A summer wardrobe designed for babies

To accompany little ones' summer days, the wardrobe is carefully put together, around pieces that are comfortable, easy to put on and delicately crafted. At BONTON, we choose light cotton gauze dresses, blouses loose ones with soft prints, Tops soft and breathable, combined with soft shorts, bloomers with an elastic waist or even thin pants that protect without ever weighing you down. Lightweight overalls are also a summer essential : easy to live with, they accompany little ones from morning to evening, whether you are out for a walk or enjoying a snack in the garden. We complete with a Cardigan in fine knit, a cotton hat for outings, and a soft cloth diaper to always keep on hand.
