Tactile challenges in winter clothing

Today, we’re discussing tactile challenges in winter clothing:

Does your child struggle with winter clothes?
Do they complain about clothes tickling their skin?
Do they react strongly to wearing a coat or specific clothing?

While you might find a piece of clothing as soft and comfortable, your child may find it ticklish. If your child has experienced the issues mentioned above, you child could be hypersensitive to tactile input. However, sensory experience varies and each child is unique. If the provided tips don’t work for your child, at SPOT our Occupational Therapists are here to support the child.
