The right clothes for newborns in Karlsruhe in midsummer
As with children and adults, protection from sunlight is particularly important for newborns. It is therefore particularly important to protect babies from direct sunlight. To prevent overheating when wearing long-sleeved bodies, fabrics made of cotton, linen or silk are best suited for this: "Even at higher temperatures at night, babies should wear long sleeves and long legs, as they are not yet able to fully regulate their temperature themselves and can cool down more quickly", explains Nicki Gohl from Hergard. Another particularly comfortable and breathable fabric in summer is muslin. Many parents are already familiar with this fabric, especially from puck and burp cloths, but it is also very popular in fashion. Thanks to the lightweight feel, little ones are protected from the sun and do not risk overheating due to the breathability of the material.
Must-haves for the Karlsruhe summer baby's closet
There's nothing better for babies in summer than kicking their bare legs indoors. In direct sunlight, however, the legs, arms and especially the head should be protected from the sun.
A small checklist can serve as inspiration for your baby's closet:
- four to five long-sleeved wrap-around bodies
- four to five short-sleeved wrap bodies
- Sun hat with UV protection
- three pairs of pants with closed feet
- three pairs of shorts
- two hats in a wool-silk material mix
- one player (playsuit)
- two woolen socks
- two to three thin cardigans
- two to three pyjamas with closed feet
If you want to spend the summer temperatures with your baby at the lake, in the outdoor pool or on vacation, you should also think about baby caps with UV and neck protection, as well as outerwear with UV protection.
