Every night when Alyssa puts her twins (boy and girl age 8) to bed she has to put down another set of twins. To cut down on morning meltdowns about outfits, she lays the next days outfits on the floor. Anything and everything that is worn is put down, even her daughter's barrettes. The kids can pick out their clothes and mom approves or mom picks and kids approve. Her son likes his in funny poses. Her daughter likes to see them laid out to make sure it will look good. It is a win-win! Try it.
What was your biggest outfit meltdown? It can be as the parent or as the kid.
We live in a really laid back town. Everything is very casual. We have a lake near by and it is very common to see people in the stores in a bikini top and shorts, either going to or from the lake. One day this summer my 12 year old daughter got dressed for the day. Her outfit was a bikini top and cut offs. We were not going to the lake, she just thought it was cute and wante to wear it for the day. Needless to say, their was a HUGE argument.
