With this chilly weather upon us it has made me think how cute and cosy my little baby boy would be tights. Hubby thinks it is just me trying to get in on tights act as I am a mother of two boys. But i think tights can be for baby boys too?? Or am I just forcing my poor little boy to live out my dreams of babies in tights?

My son came home from nursery one day, having made a mess of his clothes, waering navy blue tights and long khaki shorts. I thought he looked great!

One day he did come home with hair clips - I think a message to me to cut his hair...

He has also worn pink t-shirts etc

In Scandinavia we wouldn't even dream of sending our kids, boys or girls, out in in cold without tights for girls and little long johns for boys! As duchessofdulwich said, little boys do wear tights but mostly as little babies as we have long johns for even little baby boys in Scandinavia, very handy as the little boys are not keen on tights but are happy to wear "big boy" underwear like daddy! So for a couple of years now I've had mine shipped from Finland :)) I've actually been wondering about this and why e.g. H&M doesn't sell them here when they sell them in everywhere in Scandinavia! Just figured that maybe there was no demand but looking at this thread I'd imagine there would be?

You can get skiing base layers from Decathalon in childrens sizes,not sure what age they start at though.


New Zealand Nature on line do lovely silk tops & longjohnsfor children, maybe a UK on line company does baby sizes, though I think tights are fine for then for first couple of years.

I found them great last year when little sb was 7-10m. This year they are OUT OF THE QUESTION as there is no way on earth he will stay still for long enough for me to get them on him. And the fiddle with trousers and tights at nappy changes - unthinkable. So I've quite a few pairs of nice jersey/fleecy lined trousers and jeans and some knee socks from jojo that I'm hoping will be ok. What to do about freezing little hands and glove refusal though? And do you think it's wrong to put boys in uggs?

    • What is the reason for the change in name? Just curious.
    • Why change it?  You’ve got a fantastic historic, memorable name and you want to change it for something innocuous.
    • From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
    • if I think of Corbyn dealing with a global pandemic (a lot of his supporters and some of his family come from the woo end of the spectrum - his brother is a proper anti-vax nut), then the  invasion of Ukraine (Corbyn long record of not exactly condemning Putin even as he killed people on British soil and many other matters, I  really do shudder
