rapidly. Children tend to grow faster in height than in
width; therefore, the length of waist, arms, and legs will
change more quickly than the width of shoulders, chest,
and hips. Select clothing that allows for growth. Look for
features such as one-piece garments without a waistline;
raglan, kimono, or sleeveless designs; adjustable shoulder
straps; and elasticized waistlines. Two-piece outfits and
wrap styles will also allow room for growth.
