Children are amazing, special beings.
They are naturally creative and creative, curious and constantly looking for ways to enjoy themselves. As as a parent, I strive to foster these qualities in every way possible. I have my kids sign up for activities in arts, music as well as play-dates and sports. We participate in special events and activities which help them think, grow and become independent, self-directed individuals who solve problems and are decision makers. I recognize that it is my duty to lead and guide my children through the formation of their own identity.
Through the selective introduction of children to various activities, museums as well as friends and other books that are appropriate for their age and shows, kids are able to grow to become unique and compassionate thinking individuals under the support of adults who are supportive. In the long run, if they adhere to this ethos my children are discovering how each choice and choice affects their character and who they will become. Although this takes the time and effort of planning, it’s simple enough.most all the time.
One of the obstacles that fill me with endless stress is going on shopping trips with my kids. When I go to the local mall for shopping, I am awed by cookie-cutter clothing, a lot of which are not appropriate for children who are just starting out. (But this is a different soapbox!) The clothes I see are similar from one shop to the next, with no variety or originality. What is the kind of clothing that is able to meet my child’s need to express her creativity in a unique, individual manner? Where are the clothes for children providing individuality in contrast to the trendy, mass-marketed clothes?
In my adulthood, I am able to choose from many options of clothing. I usually can find clothes I like because they appeal to my creative side. I’ve found unique items, wearable art made by hand-painted, hand-knit or designed with creativity that allows me to express my character through my image. I enjoy finding clothes that reflect what I’m like in the color, fashion, or the way I combine the different pieces of an outfit. I want clothing to reflect who I am.why shouldn’t I want that for my kids’ clothing too?
Then why is it so difficult to find unique children’s clothing reflect the personality of a child? Clothing for children and babies is a hugeand growing market that has annual sales of the millions. It’s all too simple to locate clothing companies who offer “trendy” as well as “fashionable” children’s clothes however, what are the brands who value “unique clothes” designed for young children?
When I am required to buy clothes for my kids I am averse to visiting any store or mall. The clothes I buy are typically adult styles that are usually too provocative or of poor quality, or I’ve seen the same clothes on every child strolling around the store. Children deserve better than this. Just like adults, they should have the right to make their own choices. Children are entitled to pick clothes that reflect their individual preferences, personality aspirations, desires, and dreams. When we begin offering a variety for parents of babies, we encourage individuality from the beginning. By offering variety and choices as a nation we’re informing all children that being different is not just good but it’s also right. As adults , we appreciate each child as special therefore how can their clothes boost our children’s self-esteem. This is especially crucial in the time when children will need confidence in themselves strengthened as teens and even young adults.
To find clothes that my children enjoy and which I am comfortable with We look both high and low. My kids love bright and colorful clothes that feature fun characters, striking designs, and distinct patterns. I am thrilled to see my children dressed in clothes that are distinct from the usual “trendy” fashions. I am thrilled when my kids select unique styles which help them become more aware of who they really are and what they would like to be. Fashion may not make a man (or girl, or woman, or girl) however, it will aid in establishing the character and personality of the child and increase their self-esteem as they prepare for the future.
