Washing and caring for children's clothes - how to keep clothes looking good for longer

Proper washing and care extend the lifespan of clothes and keep them looking beautiful longer. In this guide, we share our best tips for caring for children's clothing.

Why is proper washing important?

Proper washing keeps colors vibrant, fabrics soft, and ensures clothes last as long as possible. Hurraa!Kids clothes are made from high-quality materials that withstand washing well when cared for correctly.

Basic tips for washing children's clothes

1. Sort clothes carefully

• Wash lights and darks separately
• Wash clothes with other items of the same color
• Check pockets and close zippers before washing

2. Choose the correct wash temperature

Excessively high wash temperatures can shrink clothes, fade colors faster, wear out elastic fabrics, or damage prints. We are always advocates for clothing longevity, and for this reason, we recommend washing products at 30 degrees:

• Preserves colors vividly
  • A lower temperature prevents colors from fading and keeps clothes looking beautiful longer
• Protects fabrics
  • 30 degrees is a gentle temperature for fabrics and extends the lifespan of clothes
• Saves energy
  • A lower wash temperature is an environmentally friendly choice
• Sufficient for cleaning
  • Modern detergents and washing machines clean effectively even at 30 degrees

3. Use the right detergent

• Preferably choose an unscented detergent for sensitive skin
• Do not use too much detergent - less is more
• We do not recommend fabric softener, especially for elastic fabrics

4. Turn clothes inside out

• Protects prints and colors
• Reduces wear and tear
• Keeps clothes looking cool longer

Drying:

• Air drying is always the best option; avoid tumble drying
• Hang clothes immediately after washing to reduce wrinkles
• Avoid direct sunlight, which fades colors

Ironing:

• Most children's clothes do not need ironing
• If ironing is necessary, use a low temperature
• Iron according to instructions from the reverse side, paying attention to any printed areas

Ecological tips:

• Wash full loads to save water and energy
• Choose an environmentally friendly detergent
• Air drying saves energy
• Repair small holes and loose buttons to extend the lifespan of clothes
