We've been pulling out "5 size clothes" as Firecracker calls them came across this pair of jeans. They're wierd in several ways. They're actually size 6, so they're long, but they're so skinny that if I save them until they're the right length, they wouldn't fit. They also have one of those snaps that won't stay snapped. You know the one. Every so often a pair of kids' jeans comes into your life that will not stay snapped for anything. This is that pair.
And now Firecracker's pants stay closed. Guess what...it's a lot easier for a 5 year old to hook these, than it is for her to do the snap anyway.
Stay tuned for the solution for the too-long legs...

I think I might borrow that idea for my 4 year old. Some of the snaps that actually do stay shut are so hard for little fingers to do. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThat worked out great. I love hand me downs also. I am on the best hand me down train ever.
ReplyDeleteThat is so smart. I love simple and practical fixes like that!
