I cycle every day and have a rain kit (jacket, pants and pack cover) permanently in my bag. The car has a set of ponchos, rain pants, and a couple of sun hats and umbrellas too.

Umbrellas are good for sun too (get one with a 100% UV rating), if we’re on a walk through open country, they get used as parasols.

Coincidentally both hats are fabric and can be turned inside out: off white on one side and navy blue on the other, the other is Auscam vs black. My daughter forgot her hat on a trip a few months back, and she was pleased to have a choice of colours – she spent quite a bit of time deciding which would suit best ! I hadn’t planned on reversible hats, it just sort of happened, but with kids (and some adults too), if they don’t the colour, they will be resistant to wear it, so having all that choice was actually a good thing !
