Hi mylotters! I do have a toddler for now and I really wonder what I'm gonna do with his old clothes when he was still a baby. Do I need to keep it for him to see when he already a big boy or just give to someone who has baby especially to relatives.
How about you guys what you normally do for old clothes?

It would be good to hang onto a few things to show your child when he/she is older.. for memory reasons. such as their first shoes, first jeans, favourite dress, favourite jumper.. that kind of thing.. and any other clothes that are in really good coniditon, giving them to other family members with babies, or friends with babies is a good thing!
kids grow so fast and clothes are so expensive, for all the short length of time the child gets to actually wear the clothes, passing clothes around is a good thing!

Yes, I will keep the old clothes of my child. Since the children always grow up fast, soon the clothes will not suit them any more. It will be a waste to throw them away as they are not worn out anyway. So I will keep them to my relatives or friends' children. I also don't mind accept others give me the old clothes.
I love China

yea, passing them down to your relatives is a good thing, they stay in the family that way too.

well why don't you hang onto some good pieces you know you would use again, and some unisex items,. because you may have a girl and the boys clothes would be useless anyway!

I did keep a few of them, and donated a lot of them to other mothers who could use them for their own kids. I figured why save so many when someone can use them.

I keep some of it especially the memorable one but I also give some of it already to my niece. Sometimes I also donate it for people who are victims of calamities. Maybe, it's nice to keep some of it so your children can see their dresses before. I'm sure they'll be happy about it.

Yeah keeping some of it is wonderful. It's a way also of letting them know how much we love them.
We can't deny the fact that natural calamities happens even for a rare while and our donation is very much needed specially for the little ones. We can't stand seeing those little kids out there having few pairs of clothes to wear.
