All the chocolates and cookies that they snack on inevitably leave their mark on that pretty dress or handsome pair of pants, not to mention puddles of mud and dirt cakes. Moreover, the sensitive skin of the tiny tots may be affected by&nbsp;certain fabrics and textures. That\u2019s why I\u2019ve come up with a few simple tips to apply when selecting fabric for children\u2019s clothes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Type of fabric:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a general rule, it\u2019s a good idea to avoid synthetic fabric for children\u2019s clothes because of its high level of chemical content, which could cause allergic reactions to their delicate skin. Try to use all natural fabric like cotton, wool, and silk at all costs. For toddlers, organically grown natural fabric would be the best bet.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We did a post recently on <a href=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/eco-friendly-fabric\/\">Amazing Eco-Friendly Fabric Innovations<\/a>&nbsp;that provide ideas about &#8220;green&#8221; fabrics that would be great for kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-so-sew-easy wp-block-embed-so-sew-easy\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"4Np8uSlPzS\"><a href=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/eco-friendly-fabric\/\">Amazing Eco-Friendly Fabric Innovations<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content lazyload\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Amazing Eco-Friendly Fabric Innovations&#8221; &#8212; So Sew Easy\" data-src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/eco-friendly-fabric\/embed\/#?secret=4Np8uSlPzS\" data-secret=\"4Np8uSlPzS\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"458\" data-src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_93442147-500x458.jpg\" alt=\"fabric for children's clothes\" class=\"wp-image-26725 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_93442147-500x458.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_93442147-300x275.jpg 300w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_93442147-768x703.jpg 768w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_93442147-150x137.jpg 150w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_93442147.jpg 1000w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 500px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 500\/458;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"458\" src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_93442147-500x458.jpg\" alt=\"fabric for children's clothes\" class=\"wp-image-26725\" srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_93442147-500x458.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_93442147-300x275.jpg 300w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_93442147-768x703.jpg 768w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_93442147-150x137.jpg 150w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_93442147.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The weave of fabric:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you hold the fabric against the light, you can observe how tightly or loosely the fabric is woven. If the fabric is woven loosely, it may not be able to withstand rough usage, so try to avoid light-weave fabrics if your munchkin is a <a href=\"https:\/\/es.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Superman\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Superman<\/a> or a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dccomics.com\/characters\/wonder-woman\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wonderwoman<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Resistance to fading:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Children\u2019s clothes are likely to be washed more frequently than yours, mainly because of their rough usage. You need to choose a fabric that's able to withstand fading as a result of repeated wash. Always opt for fabric where the base color and print color are the same. If the base color is white and the fabric is dyed in a different color, the color is likely to fade after repeated wash. Remember, bright colors have a tendency to fade faster.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wrinkle-free:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You don\u2019t want to have to iron kid\u2019s clothes after every wash, so try to go for wrinkle-free fabric to ease your workload. Take the fabric in hand and squeeze it. If it leaves wrinkles, it's better to avoid it.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" data-src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_264369947-500x334.jpg\" alt=\"fabric for children's clothes\" class=\"wp-image-26727 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_264369947-500x334.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_264369947-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_264369947-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_264369947-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_264369947.jpg 1000w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 500px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 500\/334;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_264369947-500x334.jpg\" alt=\"fabric for children's clothes\" class=\"wp-image-26727\" srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_264369947-500x334.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_264369947-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_264369947-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_264369947-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_264369947.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kiddies comfort:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep this in mind when sewing special outfits and party-wear.
