It's never too late to start shopping with a conscience. So we've found all the best stores in Singapore where you can shop eco-friendly fashion for kids.
We’ve said this before, and we’ll say it again. Going green is the best thing we can do for Mother Earth. It may not be easy, but we can certainly play our part, from our clothing choices to our consumption of food. Switching to organic food isn’t just sustainable; it’s healthy too! And any leftovers can be put to use at food banks. But, back to the fun stuff: fashion. There are ways to shop for clothes responsibly, such as swapping instead of shopping. But if secondhand shopping just isn’t for you, check out these sustainable clothes for kids in Singapore that are both eco-friendly and fashionable. Don’t forget to also donate old clothes when the kids have grown out of them!
