Benefits of technology

The present invention is related to a modified poncho that can be worn by both an adult and a child simultaneously. The poncho has a hood for the adult and a separate hood for the child, and a closeable opening in the front, which can be closed to fully protect the adult from the elements. When the child is secured to the adult's body, the opening can be left open to allow the poncho to fit over both the adult and child, providing more comfort for the child and allowing their head to be fully exposed to ambient air. A cape for the child may also be attached to the front of the poncho, extending from the bottom and over the child's body.

Problems solved by technology

Additionally, the opening may be beneficial by providing more comfort for the child and allowing the child's head to be fully exposed to ambient air rather than stuck under the cloth of the poncho, which could be detrimental to the health of the child.
