Parkas for Girls Aged 2 to 8
Parkas for girls aged 2 to 8 take her from the first nursery winters to the end of infant school. A parka is cut longer than a jacket, usually to the hip or mid-thigh, and normally has a hood. That extra length keeps more of a small child covered at the bus stop or in the playground, from late autumn into early spring. Check each product page for the outer fabric and filling.
Parkas are sized by height in centimetres. A 4-year-old usually takes 110 cm and a 7-year-old usually takes 128 cm. If your daughter is tall for her age, go up one: a parka is worn over a jumper or fleece, and the longer cut still sits well with a little growing room. On mild days a long-sleeved top underneath is enough, and on frosty mornings add a knitted jumper. Follow the care label for washing.

Your questions answered
MINOTI's parkas for girls aged 2 to 8 are longer-cut hooded coats for cold school runs, sold in height-based centimetre sizes, where a 3-year-old usually takes 104 cm.
What size parka should I buy for a 5-year-old girl?
A 5-year-old usually takes 116 cm. Measure her height as well, and if she is already close to 116 cm tall, go up one to 122 cm so the parka still fits over a jumper by the end of winter.
Can my daughter keep her parka on in the car seat?
No, take it off first. A thick coat under a car-seat harness leaves slack in the straps, so buckle her in wearing a jumper and lay the parka over her like a blanket. This applies at every age from 2 to 8.
