This onesie style sleeveless bodysuit is a popular choice for many children. The ability to have a top that is loosely form fitting and also flexible is ideal for physical pursuits, especially dance. And it can't be beat as an easy method to help a child's clothing look neat and tidy.

For many children with special needs there are additional benefits.
If you have a child with autism, clothing can be a real challenge. Many children, especially those with Asperger's Syndrome, become agitated if the material is too scratchy for instance. They like soft material and a comfortable, secure fit, which can actually help calm them.
I came across this particular design however because of an even more particular need. For some children that have sensory issues, the need to help keep fingers away from their dirty diaper is an issue.
The maker of this product, Julie, is an experienced overseas clothing designer who came to the rescue of a parent of a four-year old with autism, who had this exact problem...
"She needed a bodysuit in order to prevent him from gaining access into his nappy which led to faecal smearing. This was a not only a regular occurance, but extremely frustrating, upsetting and messy...."
And so, this onesie style outfit was created for her son and they " have proven to be so helpful to her son, that smearing is no longer an issue for him, his family and his school."
The sleeveless style makes it well suited for day-time use, either worn as is or under another shirt.
Our clients have also found it very helpful, especially for children who chew their clothes.
We just received the blue/grey long-sleeved onesie for our son today and it is PERFECT! We had been looking for something just like this for a long time. Our son (age 7) not only needs a shirt that buttons on the bottom to keep his diaper in place but also because he chews his shirts non-stop. The onesie prevents him from being able to pull the shirt up and put it in his mouth.
Anyway, I am going to place another order for 5 more today ... we will be a long-time customer! We'll order some short-sleeve in the spring and he'll be wearing them every single day!
