How to choose?
The choice of outerwear for a small child is a very responsible and difficult task. As a rule, such clothes are purchased with a reserve for 1 season. How to make it so that the child could leave 1-2 seasons, while it was convenient for him, the jumpsuit did not hang on it in a bag and did not constrain the movements?
The choice is often complicated when the purchase is done "blindly", without fitting. For example, through an online store or joint purchases.
A few simple rules will help you painlessly choose a set of clothes that fits the size.
- The size. It is worth considering that the products from the Kerry brand are in exact accordance with the established dimensional grid. Not a little and no more. To determine the appropriate size jumpsuit, you must consider the height, weight, age, body of the child. Sometimes more accurate parameters are needed (chest girth, waist, hips, neck, etc.). When buying a jumpsuit for a child younger than two years old, you should not forget that his body is not very proportional and the length of the body exceeds the length of the legs.
- When choosing a model, be sure to take into account the mobility of the child or the time of his stay in the fresh air. Active children should not buy too warm thing, it will be just hot.
- When you buy a jumpsuit for a child of a dense build, you can purchase a model that is one size larger so that the clothes do not hold back movements. It is advisable to select models with elastic bands on cuffs of sleeves and trousers. So the child will be much more convenient, do not have to tuck them.
How to wash?
Children's things get dirty very quickly, so proper care will help to preserve the original appearance of the jumpsuit and its heat-saving properties for a long time.
When choosing detergents and washing agents, preference is to choose the most safe for the child and hypoallergenic powders. You should not choose products with chlorine and strong aromatic fragrances. The clothes after washing and rinsing should not have a smell.
Before washing, the overalls must be turned inside out. This will prevent the appearance of various kinds of deformations (pellets, hooks). It is necessary to read the information posted on the tag. It specifies the conditions under which the product is cleaned and washed.
Overalls are washed as needed, but not very often. Sometimes it's enough just to brush over it. And sometimes you can manually soak and lock the bottom leg or sleeves, using a soap solution. After washing, the overalls should be thoroughly dried using the recommendations given by the manufacturer. Some things are allowed to iron, and some are allowed to dry only in the unfolded state at natural air temperature.
An equally important step in the care of the suit is its storage. After the end of the cold season, the overalls must be washed, dried and placed in storage until the next season. Children's outerwear should be kept separate from the area where special insecticides and sprays are used. Best of all, if it is a special vacuum bag or case for storing clothes.
