When looking for the perfect raincoat to repel April showers, look to our sodden friends, the Brits, for practical, adorable outerwear for children. JoJo Maman Bebe has been clothing kids in the United Kingdom for 20 years, and the company is hoping to make a splash in the U.S. in 2013. We think New York moms will soon be surfing JoJo Maman Bebe’s website to invest in its Pack-away Waterproof Pixie Jackets. They fold up for storage in a small, zippered bag that’s convenient for the car, stroller, or diaper bag. In sizes 12–18 months to 4–5 years, the polyester jackets come in a range of colors and precious prints — from ditsy to dinosaur (navy blue and bird print are pictured). JoJo Maman Bebe’s matching Pack-away Waterproof Trousers are sold separately, at $32. Now there’s no reason junior can’t enjoy a jump in a few muddy puddles.
