I actually have this issue with some of my kids. Baruch Hashem lots of hand me downs from older siblings from different seasons but the oldest of each gender is getting new clothing. Especially my dd who’s 8 and her skirt is getting short. I’m not into spoiling either but I think the chinuch in tznius is important and I learned my lesson for next time to just get it longer. Maybe hem it by seamstress then open (for shabbos clothing) 🤷‍♀️ idk just an idea for myself. I have taken a dress and turned it into a skirt for dd so she could still match rest of siblings

Buy a ruffle or piece of fabric and add it to the bottom of the dress

It's seems like very normal growth. You can buy bigger at the beginning of the season. Or add on fabric to the hem of the dress.

I find buying bigger sizes doesn't guarantee that the clothes will last until the end of winter. Kids clothes get ruined in other ways too. And you just have them look baggy for a few months and then the dress needs to be chucked anyway.
But do what works for you. And you're not spoiling them. Just taking care of their basic needs.

Buy a size up now so it will last for next winter too.

My daughter always outgrows midwinter. I buy in the next size and then she wears that for the beginning of next winter too until she outgrows

My kids are skinny and tall, so I usually size up, and hem ( I use the iron hem tape and then I can take the down the hem for no extra money)

Is this a money issue?

If it is, see if you can open the hem on your own, and then just finish with hemming tape

If its not a money issue, get them a few new winter stuff and a few things that will work for the spring in between season.
