Winter is coming, so we may want to dig out our anoraks and bonnets before we’re taken surprise by the first real chill of the year. Thankfully my son’s blouson still fits from last year. We’ll see about his snow suit. He’s not yet three and has already owned more coats in varying sizes than I have bought for myself in a decade.

Vocabulary

un anorak – parka

un bonnet – knit hat

un bluson – light jacket, windbreaker
