As parents, we want to ensure that our children always has a fresh clean set of high quality pajamas every night yet low maintenance for our already busy lives. With regular use, kids pajamas can quickly become worn and faded, and the last thing we want to worry about is replacing a new set more often than we need to. It's important to know how to properly care for them to have them last until your child outgrows them or even passes down to a sibling.
Here are some tips for washing and caring for your children's pajamas:
-
Read the care label. Always check the care label before washing your child's pajamas. The label will provide instructions on how to properly care for the fabric.
-
Wash in cold water. To prevent shrinking and fading, it's best to wash children's pajamas in cold water. Warm water can cause the fabric to shrink, while hot water can cause fading.
-
Use a gentle detergent. Use a gentle detergent that is free from harsh chemicals to not only protect the fabric's color and quality, but also your child's sensitive skin.
-
Avoid fabric softener. Fabric softener can leave a residue on the fabric, which can irritate your child's skin.
-
Tumble dry low. To prevent shrinking and damage to the fabric, it's best to tumble dry children's pajamas on low heat.
-
Consider higher quality fabrics. If possible, opt for organic cotton, bamboo viscose or TENCEL Lyocell.
