Some things to buy one size too big
You are guaranteed to have your children grow out of their clothes and shoes, no matter what. And there will be times when you feel you just bought them their clothes that they are now growing out of, thanks to growth spurts. But there are some things you can actually buy in a size bigger that will actually last you longer than one season. These things are typically pajamas, robes, and slippers. slippers are meant to fit a little bigger as too snug slippers arent as comfortable as a having them in a little bigger size. The same goes for pajamas, when the child reaches a certain age that dont require snug fitting pajamas for safety reasons. kids footed pajamas especially can be bought in a larger size as they typically zip up, are a one piece, and can comfortably fit as a baggy size. This will actually save you money as they can wear these for at least two winter seasons and you wont be donating them halfway through the winter, only a couple of months after you bought them. Most other clothing items cant get away with being a size too big, but this can be a huge help.
