The Best Gloves For Keeping Your Toddler's Hands Warm And Cozy This Winter 

Almost all little kids love dinosaurs, so this dino-embellished bundle would be ideal for basically any small human. (If your little one isn’t a fan of dinosaurs, though, this hat and glove set is also available in a star pattern.) Made from eco-friendly fabrics, this knit earflap hat and gloves set is perfect for babies, toddlers, and children. Thanks to the ear flaps, you also won’t have to worry about their ears getting cold, either. “The hat fits perfectly on my two-and-a-half year old. I got the dinosaur design one, and it’s really cute and hip,” writes one Amazon reviewer. “I like how the hat covers the ears in a snug manner without being too loose or tight. It’s easy to take on and off.”

If you’re looking for something a bit warmer, opt for a hat, scarf, and mitten set. This set offers full coverage from the neck to your child’s ears to the top of their head. The inside is insulated with cotton while the outer material is knitting. (Note: this set needs to be hand-washed.)  “My two-and-a-half year old looks adorable and stays warm in this hat!” writes one Amazon reviewer. “Love that you can pull it up over the face and that her neck stays nice and warm without a bulky scarf. It stays in place so she wasn’t constantly adjusting like her other hats. It made playing in the snow much more enjoyable.”

Available in beige, black, blue, dark gray, light gray, pink, and white, this glove and beanie set is perfect for children from six months to 7T. Made with 100 percent high-quality acrylic and lined with cozy fleece, your child is sure to stay toasty and comfortable in this cute winter set.  “Bought this for my three-year-old for our trip up north and it did not disappoint!” one Amazon reviewer writes. “Not only were they so cute on him but it kept him very warm. He loved the mittens and refused to take them off.”

These cozy-looking gloves are made of high-quality polyester and are lined with fleece. Available in three sizes and six color combinations, these warm mittens are perfect for both boys and girls and can fit children as old as seven years old. (These mittens are not waterproof, so they’re not ideal for snow play.)  “Fits well, my kids can put them on alone, warm, squishes up enough to fit in their pockets!” one Amazon reviewer writes. “They wash and dry well too.”

If your little one isn’t into gloves that confine their fingers, then these full-finger knitted gloves should do the trick. This way, they’ll be able to play without restriction and keep warm. Plus, they’re affordable and come in a pack of three.  “These little gloves are so cute! I love that they are stretchy and versatile,” writes one Amazon reviewer. “I bought the smallest size and am pleased that they fit both my one year old and three year old. It’s so hard to find tiny hand wear for my youngest and these fit perfectly!”

These easy-on mittens are designed so that your child can easily take them on and off. The hook-and-loop closure also ensure that they won’t fall off during play. (So they’re perfect for running around outside.)  “Bought them for my son, and really like them,” one Amazon reviewer writes. “Easy to put on, they stay on, and kept his hand really warm on a cold day today. My son also likes them. He has been refusing mittens, but I was able to convince him to put those on earlier in the day, and then he wanted to put them on himself when we went out before dinner.”

If your toddler loses their gloves often, you may want to stock up. These full-finger gloves are available in packs of six or 12. They’re also available in a variety of colors, including blue, green, black, red, and patterned designs.  “This is a fabulous deal!” one Amazon reviewer writes. “The three-year-old and one-year-old have been wearing these gloves for over three months now. They have been worn while playing in snow and while just playing around the house a lot as the three-year-old calls all the pink ones her princess gloves!”

These snow gloves are waterproof and offer a soft inner layer for comfort. The elastic cuff also makes taking these gloves on and off a breeze. (Which can be a pain when playing in the snow!) The anti-slip design also makes this pair of snow gloves ideal for winter sports like skiing.  “I rarely ever write reviews, but for all the parents who struggle to get mittens on their kids or have gaps between jacket and glove where snow and cold gets in…these mittens are awesome,” said one Amazon reviewer. “I wish we had bought these years ago… warm, dry hands, easy to put on.”

These Easy-On Waterproof Thinsulate Snow Gloves by Miaowoof are an Amazon best Seller. They’re insulated for warmth, include elastic in the wrist area, and are waterproof, which will keep your child’s hands nice and toasty even in a blizzard.   “Perfectly sized for little toddler hands,” one Amazon reviewer writes. “Super warm and soft, velvety material on the inside and waterproof exterior with a great rubber-like grip on the palms. They have a velcro strap around the wrist to keep them securely on and also to prevent snow from getting inside. I especially like the plastic clip to keep them from getting lost.” 

With more than 3,000 reviews, I thought these waterproof gloves deserved a spot on our list. They’re completely waterproof, made from nylon, and have a polyester lining. (Hand-wash only.)  “These are the best mittens ever for toddlers!” one Amazon reviewer writes. “You have to put the mittens on before the jacket because the cuff extends pretty far up the arm. They cannot slip off and the child cannot easily remove them. They are perfect for playing in the snow for extended periods of time.”
