    Well, I have to measure him and the little guy's asleep is the obvious answer, but also- his main method of transportation is crawling right now, and so I would have to make the kilt fall above the top of his kneecaps while his legs are bent- something that might make it look too short.

    Wait until he is walking. We put my son in his first kilt after he had been walking for about 6 months. He wore that until about a month ago. Originally we bought a bigger size (I have yet to find any kid's clothes that fit the size on the label) and was lucky enough that it fit him well until recently. IHe is 4 now and will need a new kilt as he has sprouted recently.

    Little kilts take me about 30 minutes to make, and they're good enough for the little time that he'll be in them. As he grows, and requires more material, it's STILL not a huge investment to get him used to the kilts.

    Not until he hits about a 28 inch waist will you really need to invest anything
    Arise. Kill. Eat.
