Mom and Daughter Matching Aprons
By Ann Cohen
When I was a little girl, my mom and I used to cook and bake together,
wearing matching mom and daughter aprons. We used to make her favorite,
Shepperd's Pie. It's sometimes these little memories that create the
most impact and also create traditions in our lives.
I think that every child needs an apron for many reasons. Matching mom
and daughter aprons or matching dad and son aprons create a special bond
between parent and child especially when doing chores or crafts
together. Having special aprons make baking or cleaning almost a special
occasion, if cleaning can be a special occasion! It's motivational to
have that "special gear" for a specific chore or craft.
Aprons help keep your child's clothes clean and looking great,
especially all these new designs of clothes.
Aprons are not just for the kitchen anymore, when I was little if you
were cooking it was an apron for anything else we called them smocks.
Long gone are the days of using Dad's old shirt as a smock, today there
are trendy and fashionable aprons that makes wearing them something very
special.
There are many reasons to buy a child an apron, girl or boy. From
cooking in the kitchen to working in the garage with dad, aprons have
come back with fashion flair and wearing matching mom and daughter
aprons will have your little one wanting to do her chores in her
colorful matching apron.
An Apron for gardening is really great for kids. Not only will your
gardening apron's keep your clothes clean, but they are functional as
well. Most children's aprons, boys and girls, come with lots of pockets.
Your child will be able to hold all the tools they need for gardening
and most importantly hold all those little things they find in the
garden, just let's hope it's lots of rocks and no bugs! With matching
aprons your child will want to help mom or dad in the garden.
Playtime is imagination time for children. Even the toughest of boys can
play and pretend in the toy kitchen, pretending to be a chef or cook.
Aprons protect your child clothes during playtime with the Play Dough,
been there done that! There are many types of aprons that are designed
for playtime, role playing as a mommy or daddy. Aprons are also made of
different materials, even waterproof.
Doing crafts with the kids can one of the messiest things I know. Aprons
designed for when kids are finger painting or gluing or just about
anything is a great idea. Kids can mess away without having to worry
about getting their clothes dirty, not that they worry, we do that all
by ourselves. With a Craft apron, kids can have a great time doing the
crafts they love.
Family Cleaning Day, do you remember how hard it was to get everyone to
pitch in to help out getting the whole house cleaned, or getting a
project done? Chances are that even your smallest, will love getting in
on the family project when they have their own matching apron to proudly
own and wear. They will be very excited and motivated to "get dressed"
for the job and sometimes half the battle is over. When everyone is
ready to go in the "cleaning apron", the chores become more organized.
Family cleaning day could be cleaning the house or cleaning up the
garage.
Instead of using an old shirt for a smock for school craft activities,
using an apron is a great idea. They protect the child's clothes from
glue, paint and other craft supplies. There are aprons designed
specifically for crafts, you can even have your child's apron
personalized with their name and give them a new sense of pride during
those school activities. Craft aprons have lots of pockets and are even
waterproof.
We can't leave the boys out! Even father's and son's can have matching
aprons to get the job done together. There are matching handyman aprons
or work belts that are perfect for the boys to work together around the
house, yard, garage or even helping with the cars.
Saving the best for last, aprons in the kitchen. Not only can you get
matching mother and daughter aprons but you can get matching mother and
son aprons. You can even get matching chef's hats. What a great time you
can have in the kitchen with your children making their favorite meal
together or better yet my favorite, Chocolate Chip Cookies. Kids want to
look the part.
Cooking and baking together as a family can easily become a family
tradition during the holiday's such as Christmas or even coloring Easter
eggs at Easter. So Mom and Daughter and Father and Son can all have
their matching aprons and make a truly traditional family meal.
