When raising children, it makes sense that parents will want to instill their values in their offspring especially since parents tend to pass on to the next generation what the previous one passed on to them. In those values, if one or both of the parents are sports fan, chances are good that the children will pick up a love for athletic competition as well. Parents who are not sure if their children will enjoy sports and root for a particular team, like the Dodgers, should not worry. Here are three ways to encourage children to become fans of the iconic Dodgers team, too.

Team Gear

A great way to instill a love for the Dodgers in a child is to dress them in team gear starting at a young age. Dodgers baby clothing is available in an array of sizes that begin at newborn and follow children as they grow into infant and toddler sizes. Onesies, shirt and short sets, and rompers are some of the available clothing pieces as well as hoodies, pajamas and other accessories. Sold in the team’s colors of blue, grey and white, the pieces are perfect for boys and girls. For girls, if pink is preferred, that color is available, too.

Take them to the Ball Game

Now that the children are decked out in Dodgers team gear, consider a family outing to Chavez Ravine to soak in the sights and sounds of a live ball game. Some people do not become true sports fans until after they have experienced the enthusiasm others feel for a sport or team. Even at a young age, it is beneficial for children to sit in the stands with fans, taste a Dodger dog and sing or dance to ‘Take Me Out to the Ball Game’ during the 7th inning stretch.

Teach them Some History

The history of the Dodgers franchise starts in 1890 when the team made its debut in the National League in Brooklyn. Since then, the team has experienced a rich chronicle that includes signing game changing players and moving from Brooklyn to Los Angeles. Teaching children the iconic history of this professional baseball team can certainly help them appreciate the fandom, especially since many legends are still alive.

When gearing children to become fans of the Dodgers, use team gear, experience and team history.
