Israeli Summer with a Baby — How to Dress Them Right When It's 35°C Outside

The Israeli summer spares no one certainly not babies, whose heat-regulation system is still maturing. So how do you keep the little ones calm, cool, and protected? Here's everything you need to know.

The Golden Rule: One Layer More Than You — But Only in Winter

In summer, the rule flips: baby should be dressed roughly like you, and sometimes even lighter. At home with air conditioning a short onesie or a bodysuit with shorts. Outside a light, breathable outfit in bright colors.

The Fabrics That Make the Difference

In summer, fabric matters more than cut. Look for cotton and bamboo natural fibers that breathe, absorb sweat, and dry fast. Avoid synthetic fabrics that trap heat. All the summer clothes in our collections Lemons, Summer, Resort, Beach Club are made from light, comfortable fabrics for exactly this reason.

How Do You Know If Baby Is Too Hot?

Don't check the hands and feet they're always cooler. Touch the back of the neck or the back: if it's warm and damp, remove a layer. Other signs: flushed cheeks, restlessness, clammy skin.

Sun: The Non-Negotiable Rules

Babies under six months are never exposed to direct sunlight. Shade, a wide-brimmed hat or bandana, and covering clothes are the first line of defense. A bamboo swaddle spread over the stroller (never sealing it shut!) provides light, breathable shade.

And at Night?

In a room air-conditioned to 24°C: a thin long-sleeved bodysuit or light onesie, plus a light bamboo blanket. Less is more a baby who's too hot sleeps worse, period.
