Hints and Tips
- Velcro rather than laces until they can tie them themselves
- Shoes without high heels
- Plimsolls with elastic or Velcro for gym (expensive trainers are bound to get lost)
- Polo shirts rather than those that have buttons all down the front
- Summer dresses with zips not buttons
- Elasticated waists on trousers and no belts
Tips for labelling
- If you buy Vinyl stick-on labels make sure you get the clear labelsto go over the top for use in shoes.
- Pale socks can be labelled by writing on the sole with indelible felt pen; otherwise you need sew-on labels.
- Swimming caps can be labelled with a laundry marker or indelible biro.
