They were right, it's snowing


Not only is it snowing in Bozeman, the snow is sticking. There was a pole at the coffee shop this morning, love it or hate it? Since I'm a Libra, I had mixed emotions. It's hard to take a nose dive from 75 and sunny, to 32 and snowy, but it is also exciting.

Since we are in our snow clothes for so long up here in the mountains, we make an extra effort to make sure they are fabulous. At Montkid.com we stock not only high quality children's outerwear, but also the best selection of fashionable children's outerwear anywhere (we spend a lot of time looking).

October is the best time of year to shop for children's outerwear. All of our inventory is in stock and there are still some hot items left over from last year that are now on sale. For instance, I can't believe we still have a great selection of the Bogner Sale-D girls winter coats in red or crisp white or the gorgeous Bogner Lotti sweater in stock.

Snow in September


It's supposed to snow on Wednesday September 30th here in Bozeman.

We're hoping it will just be a dusting! But, Farmers' Almanac is forecasting a “numbing” winter, with below-average temperatures for at least two-thirds of the country! Yikes.

As the first cold weather and snow starts to hit more areas in the states, we are predicting increased sales of kids outerwear and accessories. Which means, if you want the best selection, you'd really better be getting ready. We can rarely get our hands on more Deux par Deux, Patagonia, Bogner & Obermeyer if we sell out mid-season.

For boys (including baby boys), this season, we love this Navy Telegraph coat from Deux Par Deux with the preppy striped accessories. Warm and super stylish! This outfit is so new, the hat and scarf aren't even on the web site yet (they are, however, sitting next to me in a giant box of "to do" items so if you really want them, just call us!)

And, by the way, you might be happy to know that our coupon has been extended to Monday, October 5th due to a glitch known as "owner error." Sorry about that!

Sneak Peek and Pre-Season Savings

If you're starting to think about getting your child outfitted for winter, you'd better get a move on. As quickly as we can get items loaded onto the web site, they are selling. Some of the best sizes, colors and styles are already sold out! I hate it when that happens.

I wanted to make sure that those who have stuck with us during our months and months of non-activity on the blog, are rewarded for their loyalty. How does a hush, hush private coupon sound? Good for anything not on sale, which means all of the brand new items from Patagonia, Columbia, Deux Par Deux, Spyder, Obermeyer, Smartwool, etc. etc!

Also, please ignore the very cute, very fashionable summer models still residing on our home page, montkid.com (well, actually, maybe you shouldn't ignore them completely, because there are killer deals on kids clothing right now).

Happy Shopping! Enjoy the use of coupon code: fall09 for 25% off all regularly priced items! This coupon expires Monday Sept. 28th and we don't have any other sales planned at this point.
