Shopping for Kids

Archive for December, 2011

Wearing colorful outfits is one of the biggest kids fashion trends for summer 2011. This trend is inspired by many runway fashion styles. That’s why adults and children will find a lot of colorful clothes in their local stores. As dictated by the momentary runway fashion, most colorful outfits are usually mixed with white items: This means that it’s totally trendy to be wearing colorful outfits, but we are expected to combine it with at least some white clothing. I totally support this for the adult’s fashion but I believe that children can wear more colorful outfits than their parents. But when does it become too much? Hence I asked myself the question: When do too many colorful pieces of garment look childish – even on kids?

As mentioned above, the colorful kids fashion trend stems from the runway fashion for adults that was presented for summer 2011. Many designers who make kids clothes also have their own collections for adults, hence the parallels. Because it’s so trendy to be wearing colorful clothes this summer, we can put together very flashy outfits for our children. I looked at different types of colorful kids clothes and had a hard time figuring out where to draw the line in terms of coloring. Is it okay to have your child dress like a clown? No, definitely not. But the term “clown” doesn’t really have to do with the number of colors, rather with the combination of colors!

Let’s take the two colors yellow and blue for example. Yellow and blue is considered to be a very childish combination because these are so different colors; blue is calm and reserved whereas yellow is energetic and noticeable. In summer 2011, though, you can easily combine these two colors. Depending on how you combine blue and yellow in an outfit, your child can really make a rather clownish impression. But consider this outfit instead: A blue t-shirt with some kind of colorful logo and yellow shorts. This is not childish at all! As a matter of fact, this is very stylish and totally trendy this year. Hence, this season you can have your child wear as many colors as you want to, as long as the combination looks good.

Since I am a fan of very colorful outfits, I really appreciate the momentary trend. While I totally agree with the adult’s runway fashion, where they usually add white to any colorful outfit, I strongly encourage parents to put together colorful outfits for their children without worrying about whether it’s too many different colors or not. As I just tried to explain above, it’s just a question of combination. What holds true for summer 2011 is that you can combine all colors in your kids’ outfits – as long as you make the right combinations. I hope you’ll enjoy this trend as much as I do!

Having a good memory is important. It is vital to remember things that you’ve read and discussed with others. You can improve your child’s memory (and your own) with practice.

Here are a couple of fun games that you can play anywhere. They can help to keep your brains active when travelling or waiting for an appointment. No equipment is needed – always a handy thing!

Shopping List Games

1) Children need to practice to develop their short term memory. A good game to encourage this is the shopping list game.

Adult -’I went to the store and bought an apple’

Child -’I went to the store and bought an apple and a sausage.

Adult -’I went to the store and bought an apple, a sausage, and some carrots.’

Child -’I went to the store and bought an apple, a sausage, some carrots, and a cake.’

Take turns. Each time repeating the list that has been said before and adding an extra item.

2) This type of game could be played using a meal theme.

Adult – ‘For lunch I had a bowl of soup.’

Child – ‘For lunch I had a bowl of soup and a slice of bread.’

Think of other themes that you could use. If you were playing this while you are on holiday it could be things that you would pack in a suitcase.

For Older Kids

To make the game more difficult you can start each new item with the next letter of the alphabet. For the shopping list game the items could be Apple, Beans, Cookies, Doughnuts and so on.

This is a fun way to spend time with your child and keep your brains active too.

There are many different memory tools parents can use nowadays, and there are always new-fangled techniques on how to develop your child’s memory coming onto the market. However, if you take a step back and look at the activities you and your child do on a regular basis you can develop your own memory games and make learning fun for your child. It really is true that learning starts at home!

As an example, one easy technique is the shopping game. The aim of this is to develop your child’s memory by getting them to remember 5 or more shopping items which you will both choose before you go shopping. As you go round the shop you should then prompt your child to remember the different items on your list. You can use memory triggers such as a high five on entering the shop and as you go round the aisles talk about all the items on your list that you need to buy. Make it as easy or difficult as you like, and increase or decrease the number of items dependent on the age of your child. Everyday items like milk and bread will be easier to remember than one off items such as oxo cubes and vinegar.

Before you go to the shop sit down with your child and make a list of five items you need. A recommendation is to include items that your child knows and uses, such as bread, apples, biscuits. Alternatively it might be fun to make up a funny story involving the items you need to buy. The more humourous the story the easier it will be for your child to remember.

An example would be…

“Aggie Applewent to the fair with Mr Tomato and Butter Bob. They went on the big swings and ate blueberries until their tongues turned blue. Farmer Tom gave them some milkto wash down all the blueberries.”

Cover the list up and leave it alone for ten minutes. After that time see how many your child has remembered. You can leave it for a further hour, or even until the next day, and see if they still remember their list items. Remember that the older the child the more items you can add to the list, and if you start out with just a couple you can add to the list as time goes by.

Another option is to give your child an incentive to memorise the list. If your child is older or you have more than one child you could play a game to see who can make up the zaniest story or who can remember the most items.

There are lots of ways to develop your child’s memory and this is just one example. Look at the things you do every day and see if you can make a game out of any of those activities. Remember if you make it fun your child will get more from it!
