How to Find Free Kids Clothes

Sharing is caring!

Kids’ clothes can be so expensive. Kids seem to grow like weeds and keeping them clothed can put a strain on your budget. The good news is there are many different ways that you can get free clothing for kids. Whether you get hand-me-downs from friends and family or simply share your need, you can get the clothes your kids need.

You may think that finding free kids' clothes is too good to be true. The good news is there are several sources where you can do just that.

How to Get Free Kids Clothes

Ask Family and Friends

The easiest thing you can do is to ask friends and family for hand-me-downs. Chances are you have friends and family that have kids that are older than yours. If they don’t plan on having more children, ask if you can take some of the clothes off their hands. This can be a great way to build your kids’ wardrobe without spending a thing.

Join a Swap Group

Swap groups are a wonderful tool for parents. Whether it’s clothes, toys, books, or even bedding, you can trade the things you don’t need for the items you do need. You can usually find groups in your community by talking to other parents, but you can also find groups on Facebook. If you can’t find a group, consider organizing your own swap group or doing a swap event. These events can be so important to so many parents.

Check Out Freecycle

Freecycle is another awesome tool for those that are on a tight budget. The way it works is that people post items they want to get rid of or items they need. Most cities across America have one of these groups. You can visit www.freecycle.org to find groups in your surrounding area. Join as many groups as you can in the areas you’re willing to drive to. Once you’re a member, post a message such as, “ISO kids’ clothes in such and such sizes.”

Shop Consignment

Children’s consignment stores can be a fantastic place to trade gently used items for new clothes. To do this, take in gently used items to your local consignment store and sell them for in-store credit. Most places will offer more in exchange for their in-store credit option than cash. While this is not a way to replace an entire wardrobe, you may be able to find a couple new items. Most consignment stores also have buyer loyalty programs so don’t forget to ask if they have a purchase punch card!

Share Your Need

Last, but not least, join as many online groups as you can and let people know you’re looking for free kids’ clothes. There are yard sale groups, parenting groups, and so much more. You can also post your need in the local classifieds. The more you share your need, the more likely you are to get results.

You may think that getting free kids’ clothes is too good to be true. The good news is there are several sources where you can do just that. Whether you join swap groups or Freecycle, you can find clothes for your children.
