About this product
If there is one small piece of gear we recommend for helping kids stay outside longer, it is a good pair of rain mittens. The Reima Puro Kids Waterproof Lined Rain Mittens turn puddles, mud, wet leaves, creek edges, and rainy playgrounds into places kids can explore with their hands instead of trying to keep them clean and dry.
Made from comfortable, stretchy waterproof material with welded waterproof seams, the Puro is designed for active outdoor play in very wet conditions. A soft brushed knit lining adds comfortable coverage inside, making these an especially useful choice for cool, rainy days when an unlined rain mitten may not be quite enough.
The extended cuff gives kids more coverage over sleeves while they dig, splash, build, carry sticks, make mud pies, and investigate every puddle along the way. They are the kind of simple outdoor-school essential that can completely change how enjoyable a wet-weather day feels.
Rain mittens do more than keep hands covered—they make water and mud play easier to say yes to. When kids can comfortably get their hands into the fun, rainy days become opportunities for longer play, more exploration, and the wonderfully messy childhood moments they remember.
Why Parents Love It
- Waterproof for serious wet-weather play: Reima rates the fabric for very wet surroundings, including active play in heavy rain and wet snow.
- Welded waterproof seams: The seams are welded to help keep water from working its way through during puddle jumping, digging, and rainy outdoor play.
- Soft brushed knit lining: The lined interior adds comfortable coverage for cool and damp outdoor days.
- Extended cuff coverage: The long design provides extra overlap with rain jackets and outerwear during messy, hands-on play.
- Comfortable and stretchy: Flexible material supports the movement kids need for digging, climbing, collecting, and exploring.
Built for Real Outdoor Use
Rain mittens are one of those pieces of gear that can quietly extend an entire outdoor day. Instead of avoiding the puddle, kids can put their hands right in it. Instead of worrying about wet mud, they can scoop it, pour it, build with it, and see what happens.
That freedom matters during outdoor school, nature preschool, family hikes, backyard play, and everyday rainy afternoons. Puro mittens are built for the kind of childhood where wet weather is part of the adventure—not the end of it.
Keep them with the rain jacket and boots so they are ready for creek walks, mud kitchens, rainy playgrounds, wet leaves, spring thaw, and every puddle between home and school.
Things to Know
- Lined design: Unlike the unlined Reima Kura, Puro includes a soft brushed knit lining for added comfort in cooler weather.
- Waterproof, not heavily insulated: The lining adds comfort, but Reima does not describe these as heavily insulated winter mittens.
- Designed for very wet conditions: Reima specifically rates the material for active play in heavy rain and wet snow.
- Roomy sizing is commonly reported: Reima’s current review summary notes that many customers find the mittens run large, so checking the size chart before ordering is worthwhile.

Why ODSS Recommends It
If you buy one accessory specifically to help your child enjoy longer days outside, make it rain mittens.
Kids experience the outdoors with their hands. They dig in the mud, pick up wet rocks, build tiny dams, carry dripping sticks, scoop water, and investigate everything within reach. Waterproof mittens make it easier to let that kind of play unfold naturally.
We especially like the Reima Puro for cool, wet outdoor-school days because it combines serious waterproof construction with a soft brushed lining and extra hand-and-wrist coverage. It is practical gear with an outsized impact on how much fun a rainy day can become.
Add rain mittens to the rain jacket and boots, and suddenly puddles are not something to work around—they are part of the adventure. These are made for muddy hands, long rainy mornings, and the outdoor moments kids remember.
