Because children's skin is delicate, every parent should understand and master the methods of washing their children's clothes in daily life. Keeping clothes clean has a significant impact on the healthy growth of children. Various factors affect the cleanliness of children's clothes, such as the choice of detergent, the method of washing, and the environment where clothes are stored. We can also cleverly use scientific tips to wash children's clothes.
1. Choice of Detergent
As is well known, children's skin is fragile and sensitive, so the choice of detergent is something every mother needs to be familiar with. Many mothers use adult detergents to wash children's clothes, or even choose detergents containing harmful substances, which is very incorrect. The detergent for children should be specifically for infants and toddlers, harmless, non-irritating, and free from any harmful substances. When purchasing, every mother should carefully read the ingredient list of the detergent and choose one suitable for children.
2. Method of Washing
Mothers should pay attention to the method of washing children's clothes and not find it troublesome. First, adults' and children's clothes should be washed separately. Second, children's underwear, outerwear, and socks should be washed separately. Third, children's clothes must be hand-washed. Fourth, children's clothes should be disinfected at appropriate times. Finally, clothes should be rinsed multiple times after washing to ensure no detergent residue remains.
3. Washing Tips
Compared to adults, children's clothes get dirty more easily, and many mothers find it quite troublesome. With the continuous development of science and society, many life hacks can be put to good use, such as using toothpaste to scrub out oil stains. Additionally, children's clothes should be changed and washed frequently. In winter, children wear many layers of clothes, and many mothers find it troublesome, so they change clothes only every few days, which is very incorrect. Washing clothes with boiling water does not kill bacteria, and newly bought clothes should be washed before children wear them.
4. Storage Methods
Frequently changing clothes and using the correct washing methods can keep children's clothes clean. Additionally, proper storage methods can also maintain the cleanliness of children's clothes. Many mothers, for convenience, place children's clothes on beds, sofas, or cabinets, which is actually wrong. Children's clothes should be stored in dedicated cabinets, categorized and organized, and the cabinets must be kept dry and clean. Clothes that have been stored for a long time should be rewashed and aired.
