Outdoor exploration can be messy, but these simple, functional pants keep children dry and comfortable, whatever the weather.  Designed to be pulled on over clothing, they have plenty of ease for running, squatting, and splashing in puddles.  

Optional features such as elastic stirrups, pockets, and knee and seat patches can be combined to make the perfect rain pants!  

A seam-sealing tutorial is included for a truly waterproof finish.
