I have a 6 yr old and it is hard to find clothing for her that is not too revealing or age inappropriate. Skirts are way too short. Materials are see through. The over all look is quite often cheap.
Don't get me wrong. We are not prudes. We understand that looking nicely dressed is a good thing but what we're seeing sold in the stores for our first grader looks more like clothing for a girl much older. I was brought up with the saying "Why buy the cow if the milk is for free?" This is not what I want for my children.
We will be heading out for our yearly trip to the water park soon and I decided this year to make swimsuit wraps for myself and E to wear while there. I made this wrap from a beach towel and based it on this item that I had pinned on Pinterest. It took me about an hour to create including the time it took me to adjust the shoulder straps to the right length. Quick and easy!
