Hi all - This may seem like a silly question - but are there any restrictions on how kids dress? I have read here that women should cover shoulders and knees - but does that apply to young girls as well (in asking this I am asking for my 6 year old girl). So no packing shorts?
Also what is the dress code on beaches there? My daughter has started packing her two piece (yes - she loves her Barbie two piece) and her other swimwear along with beach toys. I am wondering if I need to condition her in anyway - right now when she thinks Doha I suspect she is thinking carribean.
Any advice will be welcome !

Hi Cal Hob, the dress code depends on which beach you are, if you go to a hotel beach club you can wear normal bikini, but if you go to beaches like Katara or other public beaches or were locals go you need to/are asked to wear t-shirt and shorts but for kids it is fine to wear bikinis and swimsuits on the beach and she can wear shorts and skirts where ever. Sadly the Caribbean it is not...;) <em>edited by AEB on 29/12/2012</em>
