A Colorific Day

 

When it comes to dressing your kids for a day at the ballpark, choosing bright colors can offer more benefits than just making them look cool. From safety to convenience, there are several advantages of dressing your kids in vibrant hues when they head out to enjoy a day of play.

Dr. Aaron Workman, a team member of one of the highest rated auto injury medical clinics in Kentucky, discusses several of the key reasons you may want to take your next family trip to the ballpark with a splash of color.

 

  1. Visibility:

Bright colors, such as neon yellows, oranges, and greens, stand out against the backdrop of a busy ballpark. This makes it incredibly easier for you to keep an eye on your kids, especially in busy areas like the concession stands or restrooms. There will also be multiple times where your kid will wander off during play with other children and their vibrant color will make them more visible.

 

  1. Safety in Crowds:

Ballparks can get crowded all over, especially during peak times or popular games. Wearing bright colors helps your child stand out in a sea of people, making it easier for you to spot them and preventing accidents or losing sight of them in the crowd. My kids like to visit the added playgrounds to different ballparks and sometimes these are not directly by the field. This added visibility enhances safety, giving you peace of mind while enjoying the game.

 

  1. Easy Identification:

If attending games with a group of kids, such as on a field trip or with a sports team, dressing them in matching bright colors can streamline identification. It helps parents, coaches, or supervisors quickly locate and keep track of the kids, ensuring everyone stays together throughout the event.

 

  1. Sun Protection:

Brightly colored clothing often comes with the added benefit of better protection against the sun’s UV rays. We have accumulated a multitude of clothing that is bright and has extra UV protection, giving an extra layer to protect against sunburn. This is particularly important during daytime games when the sun is at its strongest.

 

  1. Positive Mood:

Bright colors are known to have a positive effect on mood and energy levels. Dressing your child in fun, vibrant clothing can add to their emotional excitement allowing a more enjoyable time for the whole family.

 

  1. Easy Spotting in Photos:

Pictures and videos are part of the whole experience of weekends spent at the ballparks. When your child wears bright colors, it adds a certain pop of color to your photos that will make them even more memorable and fun to go back and watch.

 

  1. Lead by Example:

If you want your kids to feel more comfortable and safer you should also wear a bright color. When your child decides to wander off, they will eventually need to look for you. If you have on clothing that makes you stand out as a parent, the kids will feel more at ease playing with all the other kids.

 

Bright colors for the family when having a day at the ballpark offer numerous advantages. Whether you just need extra visibility, added safety, reassurance, sun protection or better moods you can take this opportunity to dress brightly as a fun family activity. Mom and Dad can be one color and the kids can sport another neon color. This ensures you and your kids stand out in the crowd. So next time you head out, consider dressing everyone in their favorite vibrant colors and enjoy!
