Tricky question! I would personally look for the answer in different hiking guides. You might want to browse through a few books before finding the right one. Why not start with "The ultimate hiker's gear guide", which can be found in the Helmet libraries:
http://haku.helmet.fi/iii/encore/record/C__Rb2044258
If you want to search the Helmet database yourself, you can use the search term "erätaidot" as a starting point.
This is also a subject found on various hiking pages online. Try googling terms like "hiking" and "different temperatures". This page lists a few suggestions for several weather conditions:

You must first renew or return the loans.
Only then will you be able to pay the accrued fines.
You can also renew your loans by telephone. Instead of a card number, you can use your social security number.
If the books are reserved, they can not be renewed.
Contact your nearest library. Bring the library card that borrowed the book.
The book can be replaced by paying the purchase price. You can also bring a new copy of the same book to the library.
(You can renew a book five times if you still think it will be found.)

There are a few choices to prevent a person borrowing books from library, although as a librarian I cannot recommend canceling child's library card and I have no knowledge of a precedent. Also library must act according to library regulations and there is no mention of restrictions for if a person reads too much. As you say, reading is a good habit!
I presume the child is under 15 years old? First comes to mind that without library's interference maybe you could just simply take the card and keep it to yourself for the time being. In case the child has Taskukirjasto (Pocket Library app) which one can use as a library card, it is a bit trickier. You'll have to unload the app from his/her phone.
