Children's yukatas are easy to put on!

Are you someone who wants to dress your child in a yukata, but can't dress them up? Children's yukatas are a great help for clumsy moms, as they require almost no dressing and no complicated obi tying! There are even Western-style versions, so you can wear them with sandals! Enjoy a variety of outfits! Now, let's introduce how to dress a child in a yukata in 5 minutes.

Steps for dressing children in yukata

First, put on the yukata. Children's yukata usually come with strings. Pass the right string through the left eight-hole obi and pull it out. While pulling the left string, determine the position of the collar. Once the collar is in the right position, bring the strings to the back, cross them, and tie them in front. The point at this time is the position where you will tie them. Tying them under the stomach will make them less likely to come undone. After tying, check that there are no wrinkles all over, and if there are any, adjust them at the sides. Finally, the obi! Wrap it around your torso and tie a bow at the back to complete the obi. The type of obi used for children's yukata is the "Heko Obi"! Some people may be worried that the bow will come undone, so let's master the basic method of tying it so that it won't come undone.

The obi for a child's yukata is easy to tie, even for a beginner mom. However, you may be worried that a simple bow will come undone. Just adding one extra step can make the obi less likely to come undone. Here are some simple tips. First, wrap it around your waist once, then when you tie the bow, "when tying the bow, pass it through your waist" and it will be hard to come undone. If you tie it too tightly, it will be uncomfortable, so by passing it through the inside, it will feel more stable, so you don't need to pull it too tightly! Many children's heko obi are see-through or made with lace, and they are soft and can be worn without putting strain on the waist. They are also wrinkle-resistant, so they look cute even when you try arranging them in different ways.

Enjoy this summer with parent-child outfits!
