Soft pants for girls

[helenahhandbasket]

This will probably be a post and run, so I am thanking eveyone in advance for the recs.  I am going to check back in tomorrow am.

Anyway-- DD's still not potty trained.  She's shown some interest, has sat on the potty and maybe peed two or three times but doesn't seem to "get it" yet.

Anyway-- DCP just called and asked me to put Josie in loose fitting pants that she can easily pull down herself because she's going to help me with training.  We don't currently have anything like that-- DD's either in leggings/ jeggings or jeans. 

Where can I get super cheap "soft pants" for little girls?  I will probably hit up OUAC this weekend, but they are always hit or miss when you are looking for something specific.

We got some for DS at Kohls (they had them for girls too). They were maybe $5 each or so. I would think leggings would be okay though. Just nothing with buttons or too tight to pull down easily.

ETA: I think they were the jumping beans brand....super cheap comfy cotton pants.

Walmart has had fleece soft pants that are really nice. Target as well.

[tarheelmom]

Children's Place has some fold-over waist soft pants that are loose (kind of yoga pant like), fleece and sweat pants on clearance. I think they are about $5 each.

Second recs for target, kohl's, and carter's.

[TheEleventhHour]

The easiest pants for DS to pull up and down himself have been from Carter's. They make nice cotton and fleece pants that are more loose fitting and you can almost always find coupons or catch door buster sales.

If you go Carter's, there is ALWAYS a coupon available, too so definitely do a quick online check first.

You have lots of suggestions but old Navy is another good option

Another rec for Carters. If you want super cheap garanimals at wal-mart are good (usually under $5).

Does anyone else who's bought the kohls brand jumping beans noticed it to get tight in the waist after a few washes or am I just crazy? I got DD the cutest little yoga style pants in two seperate sizes and it seems like they got tight really fast or maybe she's just growing? Sorry to hijack your post helenahhandbasket

Thanks everyone-- checking the boys section is a great idea-- as I got the impression that DCP meant loose sweats. Thanks-- hopefully we will have a potty trained little girl soon!

DD can't wear jumping bean pants because they're way too tight in the waist.  We even went up a size and had the same problem.

Carters, OshKosh, Gymboree, The Children's Place, Kmart, Target, Walmart. For the first 4 I listed, hit up sales, because you can often get them really cheap.

We had to get more winter pants for Judith because she's outgrowing the 3Ts in length, and we had to get some 4Ts. Kmart had sweats for super cheap, and we got a few pairs there to hold us over until we need lighter weight pants.

Ditto. DD outgrows the waist faster than the length in jumping beans. She's more legs than chunk so I can't figure it out.

I'm glad I'm not the only one! DD is a bean pole too so I don't get it!!

I have not had this problem.  But DD has always been relatively tiny and doesn't seem to grow as fast as other toddlers.  

DS hasn't had this problem, but length has been his issue lately!  The 2Ts fit fine one day and the next, they were high-waters and we had to move to 3T and cinch the waists!  (Do people still use that word?  My grandma always said it, that and culottes!)

Guise, stop bumping this thread! You're not helping my shopping self control, because now I want to go shopping and buy ALL THE PANTS.

j/k. But really, I do have a shopping urge right now.

I know!  I had a Macy's coupon so I ordered a bunch of velour looking sweats for her (not the prettiest, but they look warm and I think this is what the teacher is meaning.)

I also may or may not have bought her 3 new flannel/ fleece nightgowns.  She's obsessed with wearing "dresses to bed" and she looks so darn cute in them!

I'm going to have to get some nightgowns for the spring and summer, because we have an obsession here as well!

Those velour pants are awesome.  I have a couple pairs I bought from a friend, and I know other places have them as well.  They actually look really good on little kids!  It's not necessarily something I'd pick for myself to wear on the reg because I prefer fleece sweats or my yoga pants, but they're not too horrid.
