Spring is the time when everything comes back to life. The sun fills us with energy and makes us want to make changes. And these are definitely needed in our children's wardrobes! It's time to get rid of heavy jackets, woolly hats and dark clothing sets that worked well in the gloomy weather! It's also the time to stock up on children's clothing a size bigger, as most little ones and older kids have probably "stretched out" this winter! What children's clothing will come in handy for the spring/summer 2018 season? Find out!

Children's clothing – the most important features!

• Functionality! At MyBasic, we focus on simplicity. Thanks to timeless cuts – children's clothing such as baggy trousers, sweatshirts or T-shirts – can be combined into any outfit, with individual pieces always working together. This solution works great every day, but also during summer trips, when we pack a limited amount of items into a suitcase. During spring outdoor trips or summer travels – they're easy to mix and match. 
• Comfort! For children, this is a priority! Little ones and older kids learn about the world through experience, and for this they need children's clothing in which they can freely explore every available space. A nursery room, a nearby forest, the city centre – children should feel free and comfortable everywhere. There's also the issue of safety, and here it's worth paying attention to the materials the clothing is made from (Read more: Oeko-Tex Standard 100 – Choose children's clothing that is safe).
• Colour! It's colour that's associated with a carefree childhood. Children's clothing in a rich colour palette allows older kids to make choices that let them express themselves and their emotions.

How to put together a child's wardrobe for spring?

A lot depends on the child's age. Baby clothes have their own rules, and here the most important thing is the basics, such as baby bodysuits and rompers. Fashionable dresses for girls are what little princesses love most. However, today's girls need dresses that are not only pretty but also practical. That's why a real hit is the reversible dress, which can be quickly turned inside out if it gets dirty or if you want to change the outfit to a different colour. A dress with a frill, on the other hand, will add charm to a little lady both on special occasions and every day.

Older boys love being active. Sweatpants, a T-shirt, shorts and hooded sweatshirts are a real must-have for these little explorers! All children, both little ones and older kids, also need accessories that will protect their head and their neck, which is sensitive to changing weather conditions, when needed. It's therefore worth having a lightweight hat and neck warmer on hand – perfect for spring. The reversible MyBasic cotton neck warmer is a comfortable alternative to scarves tied around the neck, and a designer hat, which can also be turned inside out and its colour matched to the image of a fashionable little one, will complete the set!
