I think that is the ticket for a place like Brooklyn. The o.p. should do whatever they need to do, including hitting up the forum for donations (I'll contribute) to get one.
I was speaking more of if you ride your kid to school or something you cant let the kid go to class soaking wet. I agree about it being good for them to get wet, play in dirt, etc. but if raining it just means planning on a change of clothes or something when you arrive at your destination.
