Welcome to Puddle Jumpers

Outdoor Clothing for Kids

We believe that the best fun is found outside where kids are free to explore and discover all that nature has to offer. Our passion is to make outdoor gear that is practical, comfortable and keeps kids warm, dry and clean-ish in all weather.

Designed for big play and small laundry piles, Puddle Jumpers’ gear is designed and tested on the wild and very wet West Coast so you can be sure that it will stand up to the elements.

Our popular Baby & Toddler Mitts are back in stock

Our popular Baby & Toddler Mitts are back in stock! 🧤 Available in Navy, Raspberry or Red and only $19.95 per pair.

This year they're even easier to get on with adjustable velcro straps around the wrist. Just slide those wriggly hands in, fasten the straps and you're ready for adventure.

Super easy to get on. Getting decent photos of them on a noncooperative pre-schooler is a whole other ball game. I'm sure you all can relate. 😆

Being winter, the Wetsuits and Rash Tops completel

Being winter, the Wetsuits and Rash Tops completely dropped off my radar and I forgot to upload them on to my new site. We've had a very mild winter so far and both my kids were in their wetsuits, playing with the hose earlier this week (yes, they're a little bit crazy), so for everyone else that has crazy kids like mine, they're now on the website.

The wetsuit is getting very low in stock in some sizes (and is sold out in size 2). I won't be re-ordering these so what is on the site is everything I have.

🧠As much as I love having a break from the morn

🧠As much as I love having a break from the morning rush over the school holidays, my work productivity takes a great big plummet. I'm looking forward to school going back so I can use my brain for "adult work" instead of "parenting work" again. I think my body is about 95% coffee right now.

💡I'm constantly thinking of new things I could add to the Puddle Jumpers range and at any given moment I have approximately 9,285,624 different ideas running around in my head. I'd love to hear from you guys - anything you would love to see in the range? It could be more sizes, different colours, different products..... Anything!

🦅Some of you eagle-eyed people have already spotted these in other photos and have been asking about them so big apologies for taking so long to get them up on the website. Kids and school holidays 😳 I know you guys get it!

👑Here are the Reversible Merino Beanies. Soft, comfortable and non-bulky. They have subtle shaping at the sides to cover the ears so ears stay warm without the front of the beanie dropping down over the eyes.

Available in Raspberry/Navy, Royal/Navy and.... Navy/Navy (cause I know not all of you want bright colours!). They're made from the same fabric as the Reversible Merino Mitts and also coordinate with the rest of the range for all you matchy-matchy lovers out there!

🧤Introducing our Reversible Merino Mitts ⠀
⠀
The idea for these came about when my nephew needed some mitts to keep his hands warm while feeding his pet cows on cold mornings. They needed to be easy to get on, and most importantly, stay on. They've evolved a bit since that first pair, and now, here they are!⠀
⠀
They have long cuffs that can be pulled up or folded down and they're reversible so you can choose if you want navy with coloured cuffs, coloured with navy cuffs or one of each!⠀
⠀
And because they are stretchy and have the cuff options, they fit for AGES. The kids in these photos range from 18 months to 3.5 years but I have also had them on 6 month old's and they still fit great. 👌⠀
⠀
They really should be called something clever like the Inside Outey Uppey Downy Mitts but my brain is far too practical to come up with fancy names so "Reversible Merino Mitts" it is!⠀

I’ve never mentioned our Neckwarmers on here before - only because they’re such a simple product that there’s not much to say about them really 🙈 .
✔️ They’re a soft, warm and snuggly
✔️ They’re a great, practical alternative to a scarf as they stay put on busy (and less-busy) kids
✔️ They’re easy care and non-bulky

You’ll find them hiding in our Accessories section (which I’ve now added sub-categories to after some feedback that that section was becoming a bit cluttered and difficult to navigate). Enjoy🧣

Today was one of those days that the kids could no

Today was one of those days that the kids could not be in the same space without fighting so it was a “we need to get out of the house” river mission to fish and climb trees for us. It was just what we all needed. I find the kids always seem to get along better when playing outside - the yelling and squabbling stops and they seem to become friends again and find all sorts of fun things to do. Anyone else find this?⠀
⠀
Tomorrow, if the weather plays ball, we have a wee photoshoot planned. I’m looking forward to getting some “proper” photos of the new styles (plus a few more newbies that I haven’t got on the site yet). Watch this space 👀

🌧 Last year when I was planning the 2020 range,

🌧 Last year when I was planning the 2020 range, I saw the need for some great quality, well-priced overpants. Here is what I came up with. They’re called “Lightweight” because they pack up REALLY small so are great for tucking in your backpack for just-in-case (because, well, puddles sometimes just happen and I know this kid 👆would never pass on a splashing opportunity). They are made from the same fabric as our Splashsuits so are waterproof to 3000mm with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating on the outer. They’re also seam sealed so if your little puddle jumper is also a puddle sitter or puddle kneeler, water will not come through the seams.
And did I mention that they feature our signature double layer on the knees so they are great for crawlers and the most extreme little puddle enthusiasts?
As they are not bulky, they’re extremely comfortable and non-restrictive and have quickly become the favourite go-to overpants of my chief product tester (i.e. him👆). I hope your kids love them as much as he does.

Clare 😊

❄️Overbooties anyone? I've had a busy few days counting and checking my new stock and these guys are now back up on the website. Waterproof outer fabric with fleece lining, elastic around the ankle and bungy elastic drawcord around the top edge - perfect for keeping the littlest explorers feet warm and dry.

💦 Our splashsuits are back in stock! You guys have been loving these. There are 2 options - the Dryshell Splashsuit which has a taffeta lining or the Thermo Splashsuit which has a lightweight fleece lining. Both styles are fully seam sealed which means water cannot seep through the seams. And like many of our products, they have a double layer of fabric on the knees so are ideal for crawlers and little puddle enthusiasts.

🇦🇺 ✈️ I think it has been one of the slowest journeys across the Tasman in aviation history but Puddle Jumpers stock has finally arrived with our Australian retailers. The increase of online purchasing and the low number of international flights means that international orders are moving especially slowly at the moment. To avoid shipping delays, I recommend that our Australian customers purchase directly from one of our lovely retailers @applecartkids or @hugsforkids .
Happy Puddle Jumping 💦
