just be comfortable
Weather sites can predict the weather a week in advance with surprising accuracy. And if you dress properly, no weather can be bad for you. We have the whole range from cold to hot and windy and rainy, but always enjoyable. And we have pretty similar weather conditions across the country, so there shouldn't be a lot of clothes to wear.
Be prepared to dress up for a party or adventure or important conversations, I don’t know what’s on your travel plans. And the rest will be fine!

There are a lot of kids-friendly places
You can find a list of family-friendly places at https://www.babyroom.lv/en for pre-booking, but most places in the city are suitable for children. It is good to keep in mind that the whole environment has a lot of Soviet-era heritage and sometimes a culture of behavior, so please take care and judge each place yourself and do not be too optimistic about safety indoors or out of space.
