Features for your Sensory Child
- The seams are worked on the outside so that the inside is smooth and has no scratchy itchy seam allowances or labels.
- These bubbles shorts are the same back and front – so there’s no wrong way to wear them.
- The optional pockets feature a tab to attach precious toys.
- Make the girls bubble shorts in recycled fabric to avoid the use of stiff new fabrics and help save the planet.
