What do you dress your toddler girls in for shabbos?

My daughter is 2. She runs around like a 4 year old.

I feel like putting her in those cute rompers will look silly on her. But then I also think that dresses are a little mature.

What do your 2 year old daughters wear for shabbos?

Why don’t you put her in a top with bloomers? I wouldn’t do a dress yet for that age.

I think those look weird on a walking child.
OP, at that age, my girl wear mini dress with short leggings or bloomers underneath.

Is she closer to 3 or just turned 2? If she’s like 2.5 dresses are adorable!! Mine is 2.8 months and I’m finding pants to be a bit silly on Shabbos…dresses are more appropriate.

I agree! Puffy pink dresses are so much fun at this age! Or any dress. I love how my daughter’s stomach sticks out in her dresses, soo cute.

She's closer to 2. Tall for her age and overall looks older.

I don't know, something about the romper and shirt/bloomer look seems silly on her. Could just be me though.

I think a really short dress with bloomers underneath could be more appropriate for her.

Just curious to hear other people's thoughts

It’s a matter of taste. I have a walking toddler who will be wearing bloomers this summer. Not necessarily the ones I posted though. I wouldn’t do dresses for a kid under 3.

Rompers with a little skirt attached is a great option for this age. Or a two piece with the same idea. The bottom isn't as babyish as plain bloomers.
Lil legs has this idea. Item is suspender bloomers set.

ETA Do whatever you like. Everybody will have different opinions on the whole bloomer thing. It's brought up many times each season. Don't let them convince you one way is better, because there is no one right way to dress a child.

. I think short dresses, and frilly Shabbos socks and shoes are just so cute. Put a bow in her hair and she’s all set Smile

Suspender leggings for long, shorts sets for short. Rompers won’t work once you toilet train anyway.

Why? 2 year olds in fancy dresses are so precious.

2.5 in summer and wearing bloomers and rompers. I x like dresses on toddlers. The season after they turn 3 I switch to dresses. So next winter she's still in pants, baggy sweatshirt look and by spring she'll be over 3 so I'll start with dresses

Why don't people like dresses on toddlers?

Once they are walking, for me I see no reason not to put on a dress. I am waiting eagerly for my toddler to start walking so I can put dresses on her!
