Being an in-house fashion stylist is another job title that mothers should add to the long list of roles they play as a parent. As mothers, we have been overseeing our child's wardrobe ever since we picked the first sweet baby sleeper for our little ones. When your child turns three, they develop a personal choice and start directing you towards the clothes and shoes they love.
As your child grows, they need importance. Encouraging your son to pick a boys' suit set in which he is comfortable and taking his opinion on clothing builds a channel for communication. Here are some tips on buying clothes for your child:
Comfort is key
Kids need comfort as much as fashion. Comfortable clothing that is easy to wear, like pyjamas, lounge pants, and cotton t-shirts paired with sneakers and loafers, is the best. It gives your child enough room for movement while providing flexibility to perform other tasks. The fabric should be soft on the skin to prevent rashes and itchiness.
Listen to their needs
Observe your kids. You know your kids better, but they know their preferences even better. So, pay attention to the clothes they choose to wear. Their choices vary as they grow older. Therefore, buying their favourite girls' dresses in a larger size is safer so they can wear them for extended periods.
Freedom to experiment
Experiments with clothes like plain, mixed, contrasting or complementing colours, fabrics, prints, stripes, and patterns help you find incredible stuff. How will you discover a suitable style per their body features and shapes unless you try? Experimenting with kids' clothing lets your child know themselves better and be confident. Moreover, experimenting with colours brings excitement.
Self-correction
Let your child see in the mirror after dressing up. Ask them how the outfit is. Are they comfortable while wearing it? What accessories goes along with it? Kids develop self-correction over time but require tips from their parents.
Appreciation
Nothing motivates your child more than your appreciation. For instance, if your child opts for a hairband to wear with the three-piece suit for girl, appreciate and encourage her to try other variants. Be kind to master their skills.
Budget-friendly shopping
Plan a budget before taking your kids out shopping. It enables them to realise the value of the money spent on buying clothes. Styling needs not be expensive. You can purchase trendy but comfortable clothes on a budget as well.
