Wind speed and outdoor time ....

In center care, you go outside regardless of weather (at least the center my daughter went to when she was little). They were outside 2 hours a day and even with hatts and mitts and proper winter attire she was always frozen when I picked her up

Not the case when I worked in centers. We used common sense and the weather 'rules'.

Oh I wish my daughter's center had been like that. They were outside no matter what. She would be literally frozen when I picked her up. It was so cold that all the kids would be standing around crying...it was awful! Needless to say she didn't stay in that daycare long.
