Sizes shown use Kohl's Jumping Beans’ girls’/unisex chart where the brand splits by gender; boys’ sizes at the same number can run slightly taller.

In short

Where the number just works. At 3 Months, 6 Months, 9 Months, Kohl's Jumping Beans lines up with every brand we track — the size carries straight over.

Where labels drift. The exceptions are the “strangers” above — e.g. at size 4, Il Gufo, Bonpoint, Noralee cut the same number differently. Check those before you trust the label.

Bottom line: for most sizes, a Kohl's Jumping Beans number is a safe bet elsewhere — measure once, then double-check only the handful of “stranger” brands above.

Fit & the transitions that trip parents up

Kohl's Jumping Beans-specific things the size number alone won’t tell you — drawn from its own charts.

Runs true, with tops a little small

The pants and bottoms come up true to size, while the shirts run a touch small and short — so a child often outgrows tops first. Size the bottoms straight and consider sizing up on tops.

Fits close to Carter’s

Parents put Jumping Beans right alongside Carter’s for fit, so a Carter’s size is a safe starting point here.

Should you buy Kohl's Jumping Beans?

Consider it if…

  • You want everyday basics on the cheap — Jumping Beans is Kohl’s value line, priced for stocking up.
  • You want playful, colorful toddler and little-kid clothes — bright prints and characters, not plain basics.
  • You want decent quality for the price — parents rate it well above its cost for casual everyday wear.

Think twice if…

  • You need big-kid sizes — its strength is baby through little kid; the range thins out past size 5.
  • You want premium fabric — it’s value-tier: fine for play and everyday, not heirloom.
  • You want a wide brand family fit — it shares charts with Kohl’s other house lines, so double-check the label.

Skip the cross-referencing — let Little & Youth do it.

A few things parents ask that the chart won’t tell you

How does Jumping Beans compare to Carter’s?

Parents put them close on fit and price — both value-tier and roughly true to size — so a Carter’s size is a good starting point for Jumping Beans. The main difference is where you buy: Carter’s is everywhere, Jumping Beans is Kohl’s-exclusive.

Where do I buy Jumping Beans?

It’s a Kohl’s exclusive — you’ll find it at Kohl’s stores and kohls.com, not at other retailers.

What measurements do I need to size Kohl's Jumping Beans accurately?

Kohl's Jumping Beans publishes height, chest, waist, hip in its size chart. Height is the primary driver, and the chest/waist figures let you confirm body fit for a child between sizes.

Do Kohl's Jumping Beans boys’ and girls’ sizes fit the same?

From the bigger sizes up, Kohl's Jumping Beans publishes separate girls’ and boys’ charts, so the same number can differ by gender. The figures on this page use Kohl's Jumping Beans’ girls’/unisex chart.
