For young children, mittens are generally warmer and easier to put on than gloves. Mittens keep the fingers together in a shared compartment where they warm each other, and the simple opening is faster to manage for a child who is learning to dress independently. For older children who need their fingers free for outdoor activities, sports, or using equipment, gloves provide the necessary dexterity. Many parents choose mittens for younger children and transition to gloves as the child becomes older and needs more finger control during outdoor activities.
Merino wool knitted gloves for children are soft and non-scratchy, which is particularly relevant for a garment that will be worn against the sensitive skin of a young child's hands. Merino provides warmth without the bulk of heavier knit constructions, which makes it easier for children to perform tasks while wearing the gloves. Merino also manages light moisture from snow handling without becoming saturated as quickly as cotton.
Wool-blend mittens in the children's range are quick to put on and hold warmth effectively. The wool-blend construction provides durability through the frequent washing that children's winter accessories require, and maintains its shape across the season. For young children who are learning to use mittens independently, the simple design makes dressing quicker.
Children's gloves and mittens at DILLING are made from merino wool and wool-blend constructions for use in cold weather. Children's hands cool quickly in cold conditions because children are often less aware of the cold than adults and less likely to notice when their hands are getting cold until the point of discomfort. A well-fitting pair of wool gloves or mittens keeps children's hands warm through outdoor play, travel, and cold-weather activities without restricting the movement they need to stay active.
The children's gloves and mittens range at DILLING includes knitted gloves and mittens in merino and wool-blend constructions, sized from toddler hands through to children's older sizes.
Children's gloves and mittens at DILLING are sized by age and hand circumference. A glove that is too large loses warmth because the fingers cannot effectively heat the excess space inside the glove. Each product page provides the age and hand measurement range covered by each size.
Merino wool children's gloves and mittens should be washed on a wool cycle at 30°C and laid flat to dry. Wool-blend items can be machine washed on a wool or delicate cycle. Full care instructions are on each product label.
