While we wish summer could never end it has to. Back to school can bring a mixture of emotions for everyone in the family. With a long list of to-dos, here are some suggestions on how to tackle back to school clothes.

Planning Back To School Clothing

• Start with your kids trying on the clothes in the closet and identifying what still fits.
• Create three clothing groups (per child) one to keep, one to give to a sibling, and one to donate.
• After you identify which clothes fit make sure that they are still in good condition and don’t need any alterations.
• Have your kids help you organize the closet so they can find their clothes each morning.
• Develop a list of clothing or supplies you might need to help stick to a budget.
• Check with friends or neighbors to see if they have any clothes that they would like to do a clothing swap with you.
• If you are bringing your child shopping with you try to set expectations on what you are buying and not buying.
• Lastly, enjoy every moment of this year!
