Now that your toddler is growing up and learning to dress, it's time to start thinking about putting together his wardrobe. It can be as fun shopping for this age group as it was when your child was a baby. You'll want to focus on comfort, fabric, design, and size. You'll also need to keep an eye out for good deals.
Comfort
Comfort is crucial for toddlers to consider when shopping for clothing at Janie & Jack. They need soft and gentle clothing on their skin so they can relax and sleep well. They also need durable and flexible clothes to allow them to move freely.
This means they must be made of breathable and stretchy fabrics, such as cotton. Toddlers are growing fast, so it's important to buy clothes that will fit them for as long as possible. If you believe in the right size, they may provide for a short time and end up tearing or wearing out prematurely.
Fabric
The fabric you use when shopping for toddler clothing is crucial for the comfort of your little ones. You want to select lightweight and soft materials for their delicate skin, especially if they will be playing outdoors or at the beach. Moreover, it would be best to look for fabrics that are easy to wash and resistant to fading because of repeated washing.
Also, choose materials free of chemicals and allergens so that your little one won't have any problems with rashes. Natural fibers are usually the best choice for toddler clothes as they are gentle on sensitive skin and have a lot of breathability and moisture-absorbing properties. However, synthetic fabrics have their advantages as well. They are more durable and comfortable and don't require much care compared to natural fibers.
Design
Design is a big part of making any item of clothing work for you. Its purpose is to make things easier to use and more stylish to look at.
Ultimately, it improves your life in some way. When designing your child's wardrobe, keep their age and the weather in mind. Lightweight cotton clothing is the way to go in the summer, while full-sleeved shirts and sweaters are a must for the cooler months ahead. While you're at it, consider a high-quality toddler vest or jacket. Luckily, there are a lot of options out there to choose from.
Size
Once your baby is old enough to start wearing toddler sizes, they'll need new outfits for play dates, school, and other events. They're also likely to grow out of their current clothes sooner than you thought, so you must ensure they have plenty of new ones in their closet. Unlike infant "month" sizes, toddler sizes are ranked by years and measured in the opposite direction.
That means a 2T should fit most 2-year-olds, while a 3T is the next size for 3-year-olds. Kids slightly shorter than average will find that 4T clothing is the next size up at other retailers. It's meant for children 39-41.5" tall and weighing 34-37.5 pounds. Those who aren't so short will stick with 3T, which is still the most common toddler size.
