“Now even the water bottle is part of fashion.” Many moms are talking about fashion right now since kids are headed back to school. It's a whole new world out there from backpacks to water bottles. Stanley’s are all the rage now, but a few years ago all the kids wanted Hydroflasks. Remember back in the day when kids didn’t even take water bottles to school? How did Gen Xrs make it through? Or what about Jansport backpacks? At one point it seemed like everyone had the same style Jansport. Everything has been taken up a notch, and it’s not cheap. Andie and Angie talk about how much freedom they give their kids when they choose their outfits. Sure, kids can express themselves through their personal style. But they might need a few guidelines to help. Fashion freedom can be part of development, and help children build independence. There is quite a contrast since Angie’s kids always have their hair done, whereas Andie’s girls wore their hair down most of the time. Fashion is a journey - a phase that brings color, joy, and a few unforgettable style moments. So, if your little one has a style that's "unique" rest assured they'll grow out of it. Embrace your child’s very distinct style choices and celebrate their creativity! Fashion is exciting and fun!
