Taking Care of Kid's Clothes
Kids are tough on clothes, so you have to be tough on taking care of them. It
can be so frustrating having to buy another pair of jeans, another shirt or
jacket because it is just worn out, when they are probably going to grow out of
it before long. Some of this wear and tear can be prevented by taking a few
extra precautions with your children's clothing. If you will take note of these
simple tips on laundry and storage and spend only a couple extra minutes per
day, you can keep your kids clothes looking great.
As you are gathering up your kid's clothes from around the house or out of the
clothes hamper, be sure to empty all of the pockets and close all zippers (to
keep them from snagging). Make sure you read all of the labels of newer clothes
and check the ones you are not sure of, and follow those instructions carefully.
Turn each of the colored garments inside out. This prevents a little bit of
fading. The normal color separation is then appropriate. Be sure to keep denims
and whites separate from colors for the first three or four washes. Make sure
all stains are pre-treated and holes or tears are mended before you put them in
the washer.
Keep lint-producing garments separate from those that attract lint, especially
dark colored clothing items, and wash whites in hot water. Of course you should
wash bright colors and darks in cold water. Even though dryers are extremely
convenient, drying your kid's clothes on a clothes line will extend their life
considerably. If you do decide to use a dryer, you should take the precaution of
not overloading it and being sure to remove the clothes as soon as they are dry.
Over drying is especially damaging to clothes.
Probably one of the most important parts of kid's clothing protection is storing
the clothes properly. Many people do not have the right kinds of hangers to
store their kid's clothes, and as a result, most of those clothes are folded,
even if they really need to be hung. Purchasing some children's clothes hangers
will vastly improve the way your kid's clothes are stored. Children's coat
hangers are also designed to keep those jackets and outer layers stored
properly. Some parents think it is silly to use children's clothes hangers, but
they will really make a difference in the lifetime of your kid's clothes. When
it comes to folding, storing kid's garments in plastic containers will actually
preserve them better, and it is important to add cedar chips if your house is
known to have moth problems.
Just a few simple things and an extra couple of minutes to every wash day can
keep your children's clothes looking new. Kids really are hard on clothes, but
you don't have to stand by and do nothing. Take a little action and save
yourself the trouble of replacing your kid's clothes too soon.
