Are you getting out into nature over the Christmas period? It’s been forecast to be a lovely day on Christmas Eve, and we’re planning on going for a walk somewhere. It’s going to be sunny, but chilly, so we’ll need to dress up warm. Padded jackets, thermals and reusable hand warmers should do the job!
You can buy really cheap, single-use hand warmers that coast about a pound for two, but that’s unnecessarily wasteful. I like the idea of the natural ones that you can simply pop into the microwave just before you go out and stick one in each pocket and have toasty hands for a couple of hours… the average length of time of one of our Christmas walks.
