To keep stained/heavily worn clothes for next child?

Did you keep everything, or just things in decent condition? I'm thinking it makes no sense to buy new clothes for nursery when they're just going to get destroyed again.

I think it depends on how stained/worn they are.
I would keep anything in good condition - and then some of the worn stuff for nursery spares/mud kitchen playing etc. But anything threadbare, with holes, really stained I would chuck!

Depends what you mean really.

Well worn, fine. Paint or food stains, fine.

Gone at the knees or crotch, stains that come into gross category - noooo

I used to ask my friends and family for heavily stained clothes for nursery. They are much less likely to get lost or stolen.
