Age for deodorant?

Don’t start deodorant UNTIL kids start stinking. If they use it earlier they’ll need it

Third grade for my girl, but then I realized that she wasn’t washing her armpits well in the shower, and once she made it a point to scrub them, the stink stopped!

The only things that smells (and it can be bad!) on my 2 sports kids so far are their feet/socks. Any tips?’ We use good dry wick Nike socks.

They’re in 5th and 3rd and so far no body odor. Seems we are the outlier.

Varies with the child, but 4th/5th grade is not unusual.

Same, my boys have terrible smelling feet. Obviously make sure they wash them but not much else you can do.
