The Patagonia Baby Puff-Ball jacket is always a favorite for parents of toddlers and babies.  The reversible, lightweight jacket is the ideal everyday fall or winter coat for children.  If your winters are more mild and the temperature doesn't often get below freezing then this jacket will be all that you need to keep your child warm.  If it happens to get colder, layer a lightweight fleece or sweater and your child is set.  For colder climates the Puff-Ball Jacket is a great transition piece for fall and spring or a quick and easy option for loading into the car seat or stroller.  The EcoTherm insulation is lofty for warmth but easily compresses to accomodate carseat and stroller straps.  The jacket also isn't so bulky or warm that children playing will overheat and just drop it in the middle of the playground.  Can you tell we love it?  Final style note is that it is, of course, reversible.  One side is a continuous piece of fabric and the other is quilted so if your best friend shows up to the play date at the park you can just switch it around.
