We know how it feels when your children are growing out of their clothes faster than\u00a0you can say “not another growth spurt!?” Here are our top tips to make sure your children\u2019s outgrown clothes don\u2019t go to waste\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Give them a second life \u267b\ufe0f<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Donate them to charity shops<\/a> or give away to families in your local community via Olio<\/a> so that another child can love what your child used to!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before you give away, just make sure the clothes are clean, tidy, and free from the dreaded “my-spaghetti-art” stains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Repurpose or upcycle \ud83c\udfa8<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Channel your creative juices by transforming outgrown t-shirts into a quilt, or denim jeans into a bag. There\u2019s a whole world of tutorials out there that turn “useless” into \u201cOh wow! You MADE that?\u201d Why not get the kids involved too and see what they can craft from their old clothes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"repurpose<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Cash in on those outgrown clothes \ud83d\udcb0<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cash in on those outgrown getups by selling them on platforms such as Olio<\/a>, eBay<\/a> and Vinted<\/a>. Think of it as a side hustle that recoups some of that ‘they’ll-grow-into-it’ investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Swap or trade \u21aa\ufe0f<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Join the savvy circle of swappers! Dive into the eco-friendly joy of swapping clothes with other parents in the same predicament. Local Facebook groups, or parenting forums are great for this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wrapping it up \ud83c\udfa4<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whether you donate, sell, swap, or get crafty, there\u2019s no shortage of options when it comes to giving a second chance to the clothes that bore witness to your kid’s growth spurts. Not only are you helping fight waste to protect our planet but you\u2019ll also be decluttering your home in the process – it\u2019s a win win!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
