My children are severely lacking in the chub arena. They're both rather long, but neither one is particularly chubby. This can make pants a problem as they tend to fall down...all the time. It's mostly a problem when it comes to jeans. Even though most jeans have elastic bands, they still tend to be too large. And jeans are basically a staple for kids, right? Particularly for the kids who play hard and live in the colder climates.
Cherokee, a Target brand, has come up with a solution to the pants falling down problem. Essentially, they make tiny little maternity pants. You know, the pants with the buttons on the inside of the waistband, so you can pull the elastic tighter and then let it out as necessary? Well, Cherokee has this in some of their jeans now. And it works wonderfully well! Although I'm quite certain my girls will outgrow the length of their jeans before they need the waistbands let out, it's great to have a pair of pants that will actually stay where they're supposed to be! I even lucked out and found 2 pair of size 2s for around $9 a piece. Talk about a bargain!
My friend has a little boy with similar waistband issues. She's mentioned the Gymboree brand also carries similar pants styles with the adjustable waists.
