Dressing Your Child Appropriately For the Summer Heat

Be it winters or summers, there is nothing worse than being dressed inappropriately for the season. For instance, wearing polyester and nylon on a hot day is definitely not a good idea. While children can’t choose for themselves and are dependent on you, they too feel the heat. If dressed inappropriately, they will never enjoy playing outdoors. Hence, follow the tips to dress your child right this season:

1. Opt for 100% cotton clothes


Opt for loose-fitting cotton clothes for your child. Lightweight cotton helps the skin to breathe and helps in evaporation of sweat, thereby preventing irritation and rashes. And there is no need to compromise on style; cotton clothes come in different styles and vibrant colours and will ensure your child looks nothing but stylish.

2. Reduce those layers

While you should always carry something warm if you are travelling with your child, lose those extra layers during the daytime. Choose those light and breezy summer dresses for your daughter from little girl clothing stores and a colourful cotton vest and pull-on shorts for your son.

3. Include a cap/hat
Caps and hats not only protect your child’s head from direct sunlight, but also look incredibly cute. Lending protecting and adding style, they have multiple benefits. What more could you ask for?

4. Include sunglasses

Sunglasses from a good brand- these are a must for your child during summers. Just like hats, they lend protection and add style. Sunglasses complement everything- from your kids’ dresses and dungarees to shorts and tees.

5. Pick nice and comfy sandals
Your child’s summer look is incomplete without those nice and comfy sandals which not only help their feet to breathe but also allow them complete freedom to play to their heart’s content.

You can also check out websites like kidology.in that offer a vast range of clothing and accessories for your child’s fashion needs. Dress light, dress trendy, dress happy!

Why Comfort Is Important When Buying Designer Clothing For Infants?

Buying clothes for a baby or an infant is perhaps the cutest thing ever, what with the itty- bitty clothing and vast amounts of options that are available in today’s market. The fashion industry has grown massively in the kids department, with almost any international or domestic brand carrying a separate child section. Many designers too have whole collections dedicated to fashion for young kids and with even retail stores having an impressive stock of clothes for children, it has become quite an ease to shop for one’s child. However, as sweet the process of shopping for young kids might sound, it is also easy for parents to neglect some important points.


There is a recent trend of buying infant or baby designer clothes for one’s child, and while that is fine, one element should be kept in mind is the fabric or material of the dress. Babies and young kids are still adapting to voicing or speaking out their discomfort. Their go-to creation is to scream and cry and more often than not, this happens due to discomfort. That is why, it is vital, that when clothing, especially that of the designer kind, the parents should give attention to what kind of fabric is the dress more than the style and cut of it.

The skin of young kids and babies is extremely soft and sensitive, thus putting them in clothing that is made from scratchy or uncomfortable fabric can be harmful to them. It can cause rashes and itchiness, which can make for an irritable child, causing them to cry out.

Every parent wants their kids to look pretty and dapper, which is why many are buying designer dress for boys and girls. But, more than the look the first thing that should be considered is the comfort of the child. If the child him/herself is uneasy, then the whole point is moot.
