    My mommy friends and I organise a swap-night every now and then. Everyone brings the clothes their kids have outgrown, which can be used by someone else's kid. It's a good reminder to clean out the closets frequently and it gives us moms a nice moment to catch up and chat.

    @blaireshoe8738 4 роки тому

    Seeing all these tiny clothes and hearing about your boys not wanting to let go of the Chewie PJs reminded me of my own childhood. I had a shirt and jacket which I really liked, and at one point, tried to play dress up with my favorite stuffed bear. To my surprise, they fit great! Although, the shirt looked more like a dress 🤣 I'm not sure if these were already outgrown items at that point, but they definitely stuck around long after I could wear them myself. The clothes are now long gone, but I still have that bear (and it's still my favorite 😉) - it's amazing to see that bear and think "I used to be that size! Literally! We shared clothes!"

    I discovered you couple of weeks ago and love watching your episodes! I also keep a "Grow into" bin for my kiddos. What really changed the game for me and our closets was the "Time to go" bin! So whenever I realize something becomes too small or worn out it immediately goes in the "Time to go" bin. When this bin gets full I immediately donate or recycle. This way I manage to keep the closets decluttered for longer! 😉

    I love the idea of grow-into bin. I’ve always had pass me downs or clothes we bring from india for a year ahead but always miss them as they don’t have a designated spot in the closet.

    Hi Natalie! This was the first video of yours that I watched, sent by Kendra, and I am HOOKED! I watched your entire Messy to Minimal series a few months ago and have recently gotten into your cleaning motivation videos. (Perfect for third trimester nesting.) Anyway, you come off as very kind and relatable, which I admire and makes me feel like we would be friends in real life. Your family is absolutely adorable and I just love watching! Thanks for making videos! -Jennifer

    I have a grow out of box in my laundry room. That way when things are getting small they get taken out. My once a year purge of their closets is much smaller.
    I recently shopped at Once Upon A Child (a consignment store) and got clearance items for super cheap. I got most of my items for a buck or less.

    I so wish I could use clearance and stock up, but I’m at the point where my boy will grow 2-3 sizes in a season, and I never know what size he will be and what season, I’m in Michigan so I shop spring/summer and fall/winter. So the best I can do is just shop sales.

I may need bigger clothes if the cold season lasts longer and he grows fast😆 anxious to grab some things for warmer weather, but a little nervous to guess his growth!

    I do the same with my sons clothes. We are very simple. I create a bare bones wardrobe for the next size. Then if there is a seasonal gap like a coat or shorts or shoes we ask for them as gifts or they get thrifted when its time to switch sizes. I usually do the switch early so he gets more wear out them and also there is time to find and fill the gaps.

    "Climate has no effect on growth in humans, but seasons do! Boys and girls grow more in the spring and summer than in the autumn and winter. In addition, children produce more growth hormone during the first hours of sleep than during the day." WEIRD, (I just Googled: "why do kids grow the most in the summer")... but seems to be true! MY eleven year old is going through a HUGE growth spurt it's been super noticeable. 🖤

    My kids are 2 month old boy and 21 month old girl. We have clothing up to 4T stashed away for both of them lol. Between hand me downs, yard sales and clearance, I will buy a couple basics like plain shirts, pants, shorts or leggings, then pajamas or socks. Saves us so much money and that way when people ask what the kids need, I just tell them a size, whatever our kids are most comfortable wearing(my daughter hates dresses and prefers leggings and t shirts lol) and they can buy whatever they like in those parameters.
    Unfortunately my daughter has been very hard on her jammies and plain onesies and shirts so very little of hers is going to her brother lol. But the 3 boy cousins have gladly passed down a whole tote worth of clothing so he’ll be alright.

      @@mamallamaandthelittles , She showers and puts freshly washed clothes on every night to get in a bed that has no pollen/household dust where she used to wear pj's a couple nights until they smelled sweaty or that daughter would throw a pair down the laundry chute every night =(. Also, hanging out in pj's for hours would mean she would often have more air born stuff on her clothes and her allergist talked about fresh clothes being really important especially during allergy season. Now I only have 7 shirts, shorts, 7 underwear a week and I only wash sheets every 2 weeks (pillow cases weekly) because she never climbs into bed with pj's that she may have swiffered the floor with (accidentally) and my family has a lot of allergies and we live in a dry and dusty climate in an old house with not dust-proof windows. This new plan started because my daughter has some OCD characteristics and was struggling to get dressed for school every morning. I was kind of joking, "Do I need to have you sleep in your clothes so we can make it to school on time?" and then thought, "Why not?" I had only had them sleep in their clothes when we were getting on a plane at 5:30 AM. 95% of my daughter's clothes are soft anyways like Pj's (the random days she wants to wear harder denim shorts, she sleeps in her underwear and we make sure she has a robe nearby as I did have a fire in the middle of the night as a child) and when she wears leggings and needs a skirt, she just adds the skirt in the morning. This would be harder for boys (I raised 2 older sons) with cargo shorts, but you could still wear a clean t-shirt to bed. However, I will say having raised teen boys, they can sweat all day and night during much of puberty and washing their sheets weekly is the only thing that takes the sweaty stench out of their room! I never minded washing more clothes as at least their room didn't smell then. I also have my daughter wash her feet if she takes her bath, then eats dinner and walks around the house and the floors are not ideal. So, she sticks her feet in the bathtub and swishes water around to at least get the soil off so it doesn't end up in her bed. In the winter when it is less dusty and really cold it is too hard on our skin to bath every night, so I wash sheets a little more often as I have her bathe every other night. Sorry, so long, but hope this is clear. Also, She has 3 pairs of Pj's that we kept for fun and some times I let her wear those to bed when I know we are not going anywhere the whole day under covid =) )

      My boys love to sleep in athletic shorts, or boxers over their undies.
