How to choose clothes for children
With the birth of a child, many parents receive clothes as a gift. Unfortunately, some of the most popular gifts are not very suitable for a child, so try to exchange them for the ones you really need.
- Diapers play a very important role in the first years of a child's life. New parents have probably never been exposed to diapers before the birth of their first child, which is probably why they have so many questions. In this section, we will consider two types of diapers, disposable and reusable (fabric).
Disposable diapers. Environmentalists have raised a lot of noise about disposable diapers, because. they do not decompose and cannot be recycled. They can also be hazardous to human health as they viruses present in feces can be spread to those who collect waste. On a more positive note, disposable diapers do save a lot of time for parents and are more convenient.
If you decide to use disposable diapers, here are some recommendations:
- Take several samples of different brands and sizes until you find the one that is right for your child. The brand name in this case does not play a major role;
- do not use diapers that, when wet, clump and tear easily;
- once you have found a brand that really suits you, go to several stores and find where they give a discount, and then take it;
- check each diaper for impurities, discoloration;
- use the data on the packaging to choose all and size. Velcro stretchable diapers prevent leaks. After you put the baby in a diaper, make sure that his legs are comfortable in the armholes from the diapers;
Cloth diapers.
If you opted for cloth diapers. (Don't forget to take into account the fact that washing will take a lot of your time and labor, and also take into account the cost of electricity, water). You will need diaper liners for extra absorption at night and waterproof covers. When washing cloth diapers, you need to be very careful with powders, bleaches and conditioners, because they can irritate the child.
No matter which diaper you choose, you will inevitably experience diaper rash. It is caused by a combination of moisture, heat, and skin contact with urine. So, be sure to change your baby's diaper as soon as possible after it gets dirty and wet.
Baby clothes
When buying children's clothing, stick to a certain color scheme. Bright colors are unisex, more visible, and less brandy than pastels. Bright clothes are a really good idea, because a child is much easier to see in a busy place.
Be practical. Choose clothes that can be washed in the washing machine. Choose clothes made from natural fabrics, they are more comfortable, especially in hot weather. More practical with buckles than with buttons, you can customize the buckles to fit your child as they grow.
Keep in mind that more expensive imported clothes are not always better. You will have to look into other sizes, which may not be standard. Check the seams for security. It is very important that the child can easily take off and put on clothes. Avoid clothes that are difficult to put on or take off.
Another factor when buying clothes is that the child has grown out of them. When purchasing things for a child, take clothes a little more, because. children grow up very fast.
