Babies and children have lots of outfits that should be hung up rather than folded in a dresser. Standard hangers are 15 inches long and require you to stretch small-sized clothing out of shape to get them on. The AmazonBasics kid's velvet clothes hangers are over four inches shorter to hold baby and toddler clothing without ruining them. These hangers also have a no-slip velvety finish and notches to hold straps.
If you have a lot of newborn and infant clothing to keep track of, check out the BBFISH hangers and closet dividers to help you organize everything in the nursery closet.

Why trust me?
As a mom of 10 kids, I’ve been around the laundry block a few dozen times. There was nothing more frustrating than trying to find hangers small enough to hold dresses and slack without stretching them over adult-sized hangers or having them slip off into a wrinkled heap at the bottom of the closet. That’s why investing in several types of baby and toddler hangers was a lifesaver. Keeping clothes nice meant having them ready for the outing, and in good condition for the next up-and-coming baby and toddler, which helped with the household expenses, too.
