]]>If there are small holes developing in your child’s clothes, learning to patch these is an essential skill. There are plenty of easy to follow videos on YouTube, so this is a good starting point. Make sure you have a sharp, slim needle, as a large one will make the holes worse, and select a thread that’s as close as possible in color to the fabric of the clothing. You are aiming to create a patch over the hole constructed from the thread, rather than trying to close the hole, as this will make the fabric bunch and look misshapen.
Knowing how to re-hem a pair of pants or a sleeve on a shirt is a great skill, especially as these are often the parts of clothing that kids wear or get very scruffy. Make sure you watch a good tutorial before starting, and a decent pair of dressmaking scissors are essential so that you can cleanly cut through the fabric you want to re-hem.
Replacing buttons is one of the easiest sewing tasks, but you do need to make sure that you securely attach the buttons, without stitching them on so tightly that your child can’t manipulate them or close them. Crossing the thread over itself and looping the needle underneath the thread as you stitch the button on will ensure that it is securely fastened and unlikely to come loose again.

]]>It’s good to appreciate this experience for what it is—your child working out what feels like them and what doesn’t. Being interested in clothes is often seen as shallow or trivial, but it’s a very personal expression of one’s creative self and should be celebrated as such.
If you’re used to dragging your kid around shops when they need new clothes, this will be a lifesaver. Having them be interested and involved with their clothes shopping will make the experience much easier for both of you.
This goes for yourself but also extended family members. So many people struggle to know what to buy for young kids, so if you can tell them certain patterns or styles of clothing that your child seems to love, this is an easy starting point and gives people room to personalize their gifts.

]]>Quality footwear is essential for your child’s foot health because it’s meant to provide proper support and comfort, so don’t be cheap when buying it. Look for supportive and durable shoes that your kid will feel comfortable in and make sure that the quality matches the price.
Jackets, raincoats, and winter coats usually don’t come cheap – but they’re worth every dime. They’ll keep your child warm, comfortable, and dry during fall and winter, helping them keep cold at bay, so don’t be afraid to spend extra money when buying them. Even once your child grows out of them, you’ll most likely be able to sell them because they’ll be gently worn.
If your kid already reached school age, you’ll have to buy them a backpack, and quality models don’t come cheap. Luckily, they’ll be worth the price, because a sturdy and long-lasting backpack can be worn for years and it will provide necessary back support to your child.
