13th Mar 2020

Children grow at an impressive rate, causing parents to buy clothes very frequently. Sometimes their clothes may last only for a few weeks, or stretch upto a month, but certainly not further than that. This makes the shopping experience a tedious and often overwhelming one. To make it a little easy let’s look at a few tips that will sort out this immense problem of hitting the mall and burning a hole in your pocket every other month.

With so many options and styles in kid’s clothing, the shopping experience can often be confusing and profuse. Therefore, keeping a few things before stepping out for shopping will make it fun.

  1. High Quality :- Look out for high-quality durable fabrics. Children are usually highly active and therefore need clothing that will endure all their helter-skelter. High-quality clothing need not be expensive and expensive clothing always doesn’t assure of supreme quality. Make sure you feel the fabric before buying. Hold the fabric against the light, if it’s too translucent then it is not of good quality.

  2. Soft Fabrics :- Since children are quite sensitive to touch; any itchy or rough might lead to irritations or other skin trouble. So make sure the fabric is soft and comfortable.   In such cases, cotton is the proffered choice of fabric as it feels soft on their skin.

  3. Check the seams :- : loose stitches are poorly finished seams are a sign of poorly made clothing items. For every garment, you must check the seams thoroughly and if they’re in place and intact. Tampered seams can cause uneasiness for children.

  4. Choose simple designs :- Patchwork and other forms of complex designs can cause irritation to children. They often have a tendency to tear it apart. Therefore, choose designs that are simple and can be used on a daily basis.

Pay attention to sizing: Before buying, make sure you have your child’s exact height and measure. Usually, a child’s age is corresponding to the size. But If you want the child to wear it for a little longer then you can buy a size larger. This will be beneficial in the long run

If you keep the above points in mind before buying clothes for your child, then you can rest assured about reducing the hassle of making regular trips to the market.
