After using the Regatta Kids Oversized Waterproof Changing Robe for a while in real conditions – rain, mud, beach, camping, swimming – I’d sum it up as a very practical, no‑nonsense dry robe that does what it’s supposed to do. It keeps kids dry, warms them up quickly, and makes changing in car parks...

Disney Kids Suitcase Elsa Review: cute little trolley that’s more toy than tank

Overall, this Disney Kids Suitcase in the Blue Elsa design is a cute, lightweight trolley that works well as a first suitcase for a Frozen fan, but it’s clearly more toy-like than travel-gear-tough.

FORT Tearaway Junior Coverall Review: cheap, tough overalls that kids (and small adults) can actually trash

Overall, the FORT Tearaway Junior Coverall is a solid, no-frills piece of kids’ workwear. It’s not stylish, it’s not fancy, but it does the basic job very well: it keeps mess off the clothes underneath and holds up to real use. The medium-weight 65/35 fabric feels tough enough for DIY, gardening, an...

If you want a straightforward way to protect your kid’s clothes from paint, mud, and general chaos, the Wetplay kids boilersuit does the job well.
