Every spring I buy my kids a new shorts outfit for their Easter baskets.  We really try to stay on a budget and Easter basket fillers add up fast!  That’s why I try to buy practical items that I know my kids will like at great prices.  This year I was able to get all three outfits for around $50 at The Children’s Place.  Here’s what I picked up:

My total came to $57.81 and shipped for free.  At the time, I also earned $20 in Place Cash!  I just checked the Children’s Place website and the prices on these items are slightly higher than when I shopped because it was during the Friends and Family sale.  I suspect that the prices will start coming down as we head into summer.  Watch for % off coupons and free shipping days because Children’s Place offers these deals frequently!

Every since my first born was a baby I’ve been shopping at The Children’s Place.  I love all of their basics, especially the polos, jeans and shorts for boys and leggings and tees for my girls.  Their prices are exceptional making it affordable to clothe my kids with new styles each season.  One of my favorite things about The Children’s Place is their frequent free shipping days online.  I used to have more time to shop in-store but with three active kiddos I rarely have time to go out shopping.  I know the quality of the clothing I receive will be a great value and the time it saves me to buy online without the stress of shopping with my kids hiding in the clothing racks is invaluable.

The girls shorts I just purchased are perfect for summer and come with an adorable flower belt. The pull-on cargo shorts for boys are awesome because they look stylish and are easy to get on and off — something my kids always appreciate!  The polo shirts and tees come in a wide variety of colors and are always priced very affordably. They also transition well from summer into fall.  My son likes wearing them with a long sleeve shirt underneath in the cooler weather.

If you’ve never shopped at The Children’s Place before, be sure to give them a shot!  If you’re already a TCP fan be sure to head over and check out their current styles! Visit www.childrensplace.com for boys, girls and baby clothing for your spring and summer fashion needs.
