Covered Elasticized WaistbandYou'll find these toddler leggings have been pre-washed to reduce shrinkage and add softness.
When shopping for clothes for little ones, keep in mind the material; cotton will breathe more but also shrink more with washing, while synthetic materials have more stretch but can irritate sensitive young skin.
Depending on the upcoming season, you may want to select a heavier or lightweight material; kids grow alarmingly fast and clothes bought in the fall might not fit in summer.
In addition, be certain to read buyer reviews before making each purchase to see how consistent the color and patterns are. While most leggings come in packs of multiples, if there is a large enough selection of colors and patterns, you may only be seeing a small representative portion of it and are not guaranteed to get the exact leggings you see on display or in product images.
Children grow notoriously quickly. If you find a style of leggings that works for your toddler, it’s a good idea to purchase a couple of sizes to have on hand. Then, you’ll be ready for the inevitable morning when suddenly their old leggings just won’t fit anymore.

DWYM Fun Fact
Leggings were originally two separate pieces, one for each leg. Designed as a unisex garment, they were intended to protect the wearer’s legs from cold and insects.
Leggings are believed to have originated in Scotland, where the ubiquitous kilt left the wearer’s lower legs exposed.
The Toddler Leggings Tips and Advice
● A common complaint with toddler leggings is needing to buy a size larger than expected. Online purchases are sight-unseen and, of course, you cannot try the clothing on your child beforehand. In addition to being a cautious move, purchasing a slightly larger size will be useful later as your child grows, even if the item doesn’t fit well right now.
● If the leggings you buy mostly fit, but the waistband or cuffs are too tight, you can manually stretch those out to make the pants more comfortable. Be careful to do this slowly, and avoid tearing the elastic.
● When reading reviews, pay more attention to the 4-star and 2-star ratings. These are more likely to be people who found value in the product, but who also have legitimate complaints, instead of outlying production mistakes or glowing reviews left by the company’s advertising interns.
