How to choose?
The choice of outerwear for a small child is a very responsible and difficult matter. As a rule, such clothes are purchased with a margin for 1 season. How to make it possible for a child to depart for 1-2 seasons, while being comfortable, the jumpsuit does not hang on it with a bag and does not constrain movements?
The choice is often complicated when the purchase is made “blindly”, without trying on. For example, through an online store or joint purchases.
A few simple rules will help you safely choose the right set of clothes.
- The size. It is worth considering that products from the Kerry trademark are in strict accordance with the established dimensional grid. Not small and not large. To determine a suit that is suitable in size, it is necessary to take into account the height, weight, age, physique of the child. Sometimes more precise parameters are needed (girth of the chest, waist, hips, neck, etc.). When buying a jumpsuit for a child under two years old, one should not forget that his body is still not very proportional and the length of the body exceeds the length of the legs.
- When choosing a model, you must take into account the mobility of the child or the time he spent in the fresh air. Active children should not buy too warm a thing, it will just be hot.
- When buying a jumpsuit for a child of a dense physique, you can purchase a model a size larger so that the clothes do not hamper the movements. It is advisable to select models with elastic bands on the cuffs of the sleeves and legs. So the child will be much more comfortable, do not have to tuck them.
How to wash?
Children's things get dirty very quickly, so proper care will help to maintain the original appearance of the overalls and its heat-saving properties for a long time.
When choosing detergents and detergents, preference is to choose the most safe and hypoallergenic powders for the child. Do not choose products with a chlorine content and strong aromatic fragrances. Clothing after washing and rinsing should not be odorless.
Before washing, the jumpsuit must be turned inside out. This will prevent the appearance of various kinds of deformations (spools, hooks). You must read the information posted on the tag. It indicates the conditions under which the product is cleaned and washed.
Overalls are erased as needed, but not very often. Sometimes just brushing over it is enough. And sometimes you can manually soak and wash the bottom of the legs or sleeves using a soap solution. After washing, the jumpsuit must be thoroughly dried using the recommendations given by the manufacturer. Some things are allowed to be ironed, and some are permissible to dry exclusively in the unfolded state at natural air temperature.
An equally important step in the care of overalls is its storage. After the end of the cold season, the jumpsuit must be washed, dried and stored until the next season. Children's outerwear should be stored separately from the area of use of special means for protecting against insects, as well as spraying aromatic products. It is best if it is a special vacuum bag or case for storing clothes.
