Holiday Shopping: How To Spend Prudently On Winter Baby Wear And Shoes

Posted on December 03, 2016 by Hugo&Amber Ferrari

Winter Solstice, Holiday Break, Christmas, New Year, and every day in between have a contrastingly festive mood despite the cold, white winter ambience. Spending winter with the whole family, enjoying the outdoors, and the celebrations garbed in layers of sweaters, winter coats and clothes; everyone in the family can share in the wonderland that winter brings!

Winter is a time for bonfires, roasting marshmallows, s’mores, and hot chocolate. Sledding and making snowmen and angels in the snow brings fun and laughter to both young and old.

Winter

While having fun and enjoying this precious season with the family, bear in mind to protect yourself and your children from the cold. Choosing the best winter clothes for your family, especially for your little one is your key to enjoying the winter with your family.

There are a number of considerations that you might want to include in your quest in finding the best winter wear and kids fashion wear this season. Price may be on top of every list of factors, as well as free shipping.

However, to spend your money wisely, you need to know what to look for. It's not always that you would be relying on baby discount store sales, but more on getting more for what you pay for.

Here is a list of features that can help you spend your money sensibly on winter clothing for you and your little ones:

  • Strength and Durability - Winter apparel should be “enduring” to withstand the rough winter weather. How much could a fabric take before it breaks?
  • Warmth - Winter can be brutally cold, especially for your toddlers. Layering is not always the answer as it can inhibit free movement. It is important to know the type of fabric. Top choices would be wool and cotton coupled with a synthetic fiber that can help keep body heat. Ensuring that the fabric is water resistant helps keep your babies dry and warm underneath. 

Winter Clothes

  • Functionality - Warmth and protection are not the only things that you need to look out for when choosing winter clothes for your children. You should be able to easily take them off when needed. Zippers that go all the way from the neckline down to the hem can give you easy access, as well as pull down pants, can give you ease in assisting your little ones.
  • Safety - Many parents debate over having drawstrings on their toddler's clothing; whether for winter or otherwise. Drawstrings can easily get caught and can pose a high safety issue. Some clothes manufacturers have those little clasps that join both ends of drawstrings, some do away with it totally and use either Velcro or elastic bands instead.
  • Flammability - With winter being a time for bonfires, making sure that the outside layer of your tad’s winter clothing is made of fabric that is also fire retardant to keep them safe.
  • Size - Size matters all the time! Ensuring that your babies get the right baby shoe sizes, as well as winter baby clothes sizes, could mean your baby's comfort.

PlushyTadWear ensures that you spend your money reasonably on winter clothes and boots for your little ones. With free charts for baby and toddler clothes and shoes, as well as guides on how to get the correct size for your little one, you are confident to choose the right size.

Tape Measure

Because your baby is our boss, you can enjoy the winter outdoors with the family without leaving your little one behind!
