The earth is covered with a transparent necklace of raindrops, a rhythmic natural beatbox drums on the roofs, and the leaves of the trees are so saturated with moisture that they seem to have turned waxy. The aesthetics of a rainy day feel like the highest grace when you observe it from a cozy, dry corner.
But with an umbrella and special accessories, you can enjoy the full-length version of this natural wonder: inhaling the intoxicating scent of freshness, measuring the depth of puddles, and launching paper boats. What is this, if not a happy childhood?
Rain, downpour, drizzle: these guests visit us on weekends and weekdays. They meet us on walks and catch us by surprise on the way to kindergarten, polyclinic, school.
The success of the whole day at that moment depends on the availability of a seemingly ordinary umbrella.
You can hide under its dome like under the wing of a big, kind bird from children's fairy tales. It prevents you from getting wet, cold, and catching a cold.
A children's umbrella is an important accessory and a loyal friend at the same time. Every child should have one: their own, personal. One that fits their height, feels comfortable in their hand, and brightens their mood with a cheerful print.
How to choose a children's umbrella? What to pay attention to
Umbrella mechanism and construction
To make it easy for a child to handle the accessory, we recommend paying attention to the "semi-automatic" option. It can be opened with a simple press of a button, and folded by pulling the slider towards the base of the handle. This mechanism has been tried and tested for years and generations.
A stick umbrella is the best choice for a child. It is practical and durable.
Number and material of spokes. For a children's model, the optimal choice is an umbrella with 8 reinforced spokes. Ideally, they should be made of fiberglass and carbon. Such an accessory will last longer and won't let you down at an unexpected moment.
Quality and reliability
Branded Kite umbrellas will delight with exemplary quality. The dome material is durable and waterproof polyester. Every detail – from the frame to the smallest fittings – is made conscientiously. The spokes are reliably sewn to the dome in several places.
Convenience for the child
To make the umbrella comfortable to hold, pay attention to models with a plastic hook handle. It fits comfortably in the hand, and can also be used to hang the umbrella for drying and storage. The Velcro strap easily and securely fastens the umbrella in the closed position.
Children's umbrella size
For preschoolers and elementary school students, it is important that the umbrella is light and mobile, but at the same time completely covers the child from rain. The optimal size is with a dome diameter of 86 cm and a cane length of 68 cm; it is suitable for children from 3 to 10 years old.
Safety
To prevent the child from accidentally pricking themselves, each spoke in the protruding part should be covered with a protective tip (necessarily rounded, without sharp corners or edges).
Design
Bright colors and cheerful prints will lift your spirits even on the gloomiest day. When a child loves their umbrella, every walk will bring a sea of positive emotions. Kite umbrellas will delight with their colorfastness – the colors do not fade in the sun and are not afraid of water. A wide selection of designs will allow every child to find their model. Does your child dream of an umbrella with their favorite character? Kite offers cool world licenses such as Peanuts Snoopy, DC Comics, Hot Wheels, Transformers, and Rachael Hale.
