Many retailers are offering their annual sales on school uniform items, so its a great time to take a look at the state of your child's wardrobe and make needed updates. Here is your homework assignment for you to complete over the next few days:
- Has your child grown since the school year started? If so, check if his/her pants might be looking a bit too short and his/her shirts just won't stay tucked in?
- On laundry day, take a bit of extra time to inspect the uniform items. Do you see any holes, loose threads or stains? Are any items showing signs of wear on the cuffs or along the hemline?
- Hold up the white shirts to a newer white shirt. If it now appears yellow, it might need special attention in the laundry cycle or need replacing all together.
- Don't forget to sort through the socks and underwear drawer too. Get rid of items that your child has outgrown and toss out any socks that with holes or ones that no longer have a mate.
- Mend or alter any items that still have some wear left in them.
- Make a list of items that need replacing.
