Thanks all...

Melessa...mask is a great idea. I have asthma and use a scarf. It's true about selling" the winter gear - my ds is patchy about his gloves and hat. He also keeps losing gloves (or one of a pair). I'm getting black knit gloves in bulk like socks, LOL!

They are pretty "wimpy" (that's what we would've called them ...I'm from the northern Midwest) around here about cold. They don't go out when it's below freezing. So that will help him. I have fond memories of burrowing into our snow suits and boots before recess as a kid because we went EVERY day unless it was raining.
