As the mercury goes up, your children require clothes not only to appear nice but feel nicer. Be it school, playdates, or vacation trips, appropriate summer clothing for kids can make a difference between long days of enjoyment or a sweating breakdown.

Have you ever seen how irritable your child becomes after playing around in hot denim or thick synthetics on a warm day? That's their small bodies screaming for more breathable options!


These are the top fabrics for children's summer wear that balance comfort, durability, and breathability:

    • Cotton – The original of summer fabrics. Soft, absorbent, and easy to wash. It's ideal for onesies to frocks.

      • Muslin – Very lightweight and breathable—ideal for babies and toddlers. Quick-drying, so ideal for humid days.

        • Linen – Natural texture makes things breezy and airy. A little wrinkled appearance only adds to the appeal.

          • Bamboo – Ideal for sensitive skin, it's naturally hypoallergenic and cooling. And it contains UV protection too!

            • Modal – Buttery soft and quick-drying. Ideal for innerwear and soft loungewear.

              • Seersucker – Wrinkled, lightweight, and great for button-downs or summertime dresses. Little ironing needed.

              Do you find yourself reading clothing tags often when purchasing clothing for your child? Don't? It's time. Always opt for lightweight fabrics that breathe and do not restrict little ones' motion.

              Let your children run, jump, and roll around without becoming tiny balls of sweat. And really, summer memories are not about rashes and melt-downs, but about ice creams and laughter.
