Wow. I'm jealous! My kids need a new outfit for each meal. They get so dirty there's no way I can reuse until chol hamoed when I can wash for them!

This is my favorite so far

This is my least favorite

The embroidered is gorgeous. The vest robe is gorgeous too but so not practical. You'd have to be a slave to it. Toddlers are one of the dirtiest ages.

I don't use summer/winter exclusive clothing. In NY heating is insane in the buildings by winter and shuls are blasting AC in the summer. I dress my kids in long sleeve but not thick clothes with for summer and winter.

My kids are Ages 1-8
Did 2 robes (My kids are little and get dirty fast) + 3 outfits ( Which are all very wintery and one I am reusing from last winter)
In case its not cold, they have from Pesach thin dark colored dresses/outfits they can wear if the weather isnt cold enough for turtlenecks and velvet.

Can anyone clarify this for me:
There are 6 days of Shabbos/YT this succos.
If you don’t do laundry on CHM, don’t you need 6 outfits?
Or do your kids keep them clean enough to wear for more than one day?
I’m not talking about new; I’m talking hand me downs etc…
But I don’t understand how it works with less than the number of Shabbos/YT there are.

Please be nice. I am asking sincerely and with no judgement.

Maybe because they're velour, like a velour robe. So technically they're Shabbos pyjamas! I was also wondering. They're cute, but I'm not sure if I'll be buying a set for my almost 3 year old.

My kids 8+ can keep themselves clean for the most part. My older boys only have one suit each. A few shirts... They need to stay clean!
I might put their suit trousers on a short wash on chol hamoed.
My 8 year old daughter has loads of clothes and 2 robes, but she also keeps herself clean mostly and can often rewear a dress for another day.
I'll need stock up on tights for her.

Didn’t read through the responses.
The younger the kid the more I get:) What happens is that I get sale stuff the year before, and buy the missing pieces right before the season, so I’m not buying everything full price. My young kids don’t care so much what I put them in, if it’s last season etc, so it works. They get dirty very easily, I need to account for an outfit per kid not lasting the season, and I don’t want to go shopping again. And while I try to be on top of my laundry, there might be an outfit missed, maybe it fell behind the hamper etc, it’s happened, so I need enough for two shabbosim.
BH I get a lot of sale stuff and that’s the only reason I get a bunch for them.

I have a 9 month old boy. I got him two, one from carters and a fancy one from a Jewish store as I had a credit from a gift card. The other days he can wear stretchies. I feel like I won't use three things the rest of the season. Barely even two.

I got the below, cute and well priced. And 100% cotton.

Cute! How does it run and fit? Are the pants tight?

I found some cute sets for toddler girls at lingerie shop website. Perfect for that in between age too old for regular sets and too little for dresses at home. Their return policy sucks though.
