Review on Warm and Dry: NIce Caps Waterproof Thinsulate Winter Boys' Accessories for Cold Weather by Gary Shakeone

These mittens are the lightest thing I've ever worn on a kid's hand (and I've got several)! I had no problem getting his thumb in the thumb hole, which is a common problem with mittens. The only thing I would change is the thickness of the locking tab. It's quite thin so will likely come off the velcro if you're not careful with it. Since I'm the one putting them on him, I already know I have to be careful not to force them. They fit well and he can move his fingers with them. They aren't stiff which is a plus when trying to play with the snow! I also like the cuff that helps keep the cold out.
