    athletics carnival. what to wear?

    What do you dress your children in for athletics day;
    Shorts and t-shirt regardless of the fact that it's midwinter or trackies and long sleeves despite the fact that it will slow them down and make them too hot when they run?

    Tshirt and trackies (not big thick ones) and send them in a jumper but have to remind them to take it off before they run

    We used to do trackies over shorts and then t-shirts with jacket or jumper so you could take off the trackies for events but then put them back on after if it was cold. Guess that depends how much room there are with the trackies, ours were the big baggy kind.

    Tshirt and shorts with a jacket and trackies that they can take on and off. My girls do wear leggings though which makes a huge difference - legs are still warm but they can also run in them. DS usually wears his skins too to help stay warm, but then I don't imagine you want to be spending $100 on a pair of long skins just for an athletics carnival LOL.
