Some advice from one parent to another: Don't skimp on your kid鈥檚 ski gloves. All the hot chocolate in the world will not salvage a ski day where your youngest suffered mild frostbite on his/her digits. That said, you don鈥檛 have to spend a fortune on toasty fingers. Here are five options that can handle the coldest day on the hill, regardless of your budget.
Columbia Whirlbird Mitten ($30)

Columbia lines with their Omni-Heat Reflective layer for next level toastiness at a budget-friendly price.
Burton Vent Glove ($35)

I love how allows you to add hand warmers or vent excess heat, which is key when you get them dressed to the nines and it ends up being 45 degrees and sunny.
Outdoor Research Adrenaline Gloves ($40)

An extra long cuff with a wrist strap that cinches down keeps the heat in and the snow out of .
Gordini Maverick Junior ($65)

Goat leather palm and finger wraps, Primaloft insulation, and a zippered vent make聽聽some of the best we've tested.
Hestra Heli Ski Jr. ($100)

Hestra's has a bomber goat leather exterior with a removable insulated liner, which dries super fast when it鈥檚 out of the shell.
