Why you shouldn't buy children's clothes "for growth": you are making a big mistake - no convenience, no savings

The times when, due to a total shortage and high cost, children's clothes were bought for growth are long gone.

This solution seems good only at first glance – many parents, grandparents believe that this way they can save a lot of money.

In fact, this approach is fundamentally wrong.

Firstly, it is simply uncomfortable for a child to move in clothes that are not the right size – excess fabric gathers in folds and gets in the way. Secondly, which is especially true for winter clothes, if there is free space inside, the child quickly freezes.

And thirdly, if a boy or girl wears a jacket that is not appropriate for their height, with drooping shoulders and long sleeves, it will look ridiculous and unattractive - most likely, such an outfit will cause ridicule from peers.

Despite all the above recommendations, many parents still prefer to buy clothes for their children with a small reserve, believing that “the child grows quickly anyway.”

Perhaps they will be somewhat sobered by the thought that the winter overalls they bought, which will be too big for their child this season, may be too small for him by next year.

As a result, you won’t be able to use the clothes you’ve already purchased – you’ll have to spend money on new things again.
