I tell you one thing, my tween is always growing. I feel like I get him a new pair of pants for church and by the next month he has outgrown them already!! It is time consuming to keep on top of his wardrobe.
I also feel like he is at the point where I have to take him shopping with me to make sure things fit correctly. Right now, he has outgrown his white button down shirt for church and his pants are a little too snug. A shopping trip for church clothes really needs to happen before next Sunday.
I remember the days when I could pick up 3T, 4T and 5T – they fit perfectly and we were good to go! Those times have gone far too quickly!
Here is a list of the winter staples that my tween always needs in his wardrobe and is always outgrowing;
- A nice pair of khaki pants (Gap has my all time favorite khaki pants for my tween)
-A couple pair of jeans (Gap is also my favorite for these)
-A pair of tennis shoes (I love the black Adidas indoor soccer shoes – comfortable and easy to get on and off)
-A pair of brown dressier church shoes
-A white button down shirt
-A good comfortable sweatshirt
-Long and short sleeve t-shirts
-A nice warm jacket
Come summer time, this list will change from jeans to shorts and jackets to swimming trunks! Good luck keeping your growing tween dressed and comfortable this year!
