The old technique of recycling children’s clothes between siblings

Published on : 08 January 20202 min reading time

During the first years, children grow up very fast; so much so that their clothes from the previous semester don’t fit the next one. And this situation involves countless inconveniences, such as overflowing wardrobes and a major expense allocated to the purchase of new clothes each season. And if you have more than one child, you can recycle the oldest child’s clothes so that his or her brother or sister can put them on in turn. How can you do this?

Choose good quality clothes

To avoid having to buy more clothes for your children every time, remember to choose the right quality. Indeed, little ones destroy their clothes faster than adults. It’s even possible that jeans or other items may be rolled up right after a child wears them. So it’s obvious that if you want to have the older child wear the younger one’s clothes, it’s better to invest in resistant clothing and better fabrics.

Opting for standard clothes

Your children may not all be of the same sex. So, to make recycling easier and so that older siblings can pass on their old clothes to their younger brothers and sisters, it would be best to opt for standard clothing styles. This means outfits that don’t choose the gender, such as pants, shirts, sweaters and T-shirts. In this way, you would minimize waste and clothing products that are no longer of use to anyone. But still, in case you have invested a little too much in distinctive clothing, you can always resize and modify it to fit your juniors.

Invest in fashionable styles all the time

In the children’s world, fashion is always on the agenda. Every year, there are new collections released by major brands and designers. And when you reach a certain age, your pupils will start to get to know them and have preferences. On the other hand, if you choose the old recycling system, it might not be similar to your child’s taste. What’s more, fashion is constantly changing and evolving. That’s why it’s advisable to invest in clothes that are always trendy. Everyone’s tastes and needs will be satisfied in this way, and you’ll save money by limiting your purchases.
