Sensory Friendly Clothing: Abby from Norwood Secondary College has been on board with us at Sensory Friendly Clothing with her work experience this week. Abby has learnt the process of design and manufacturing of products, as well as our warehouse system. She has assisted in processing of heaps of orders this week as well as helping us get through some of our mountains of products for stocktake. As you can see in this photo, there was a Swifty's vibe in the warehouse this week with Jane and Abby not having any troubles finding a topic of conversation every day.

PD: Jane, adult with long dark hair standing side on close to camera with Abby, teenager with long blonde hair standing beside Jane. They are facing shelving and Abby is holding a product and checking it's size is correct and Jane is opening a drawer to pick up a product. The shelving has black clothing in plastic packaging on it. The background shows more of the warehouse with boxes and shelving. Both Jane and Abby are wearing grey coloured knitted Taylor Swift brand cardigans.

Is your child struggling to put their shoes and socks on for school in the morning?
It can be very difficult for them to overcome the irritation from something as simple as a pair of socks. They can feel minor lumps and bumps, the scratchy fabric or find the toe or heel seams incredibly irritating.
Imagine wearing a pair of socks with several small sharp rocks inside them, you can’t remove them and are expected to wear them for 7 hours, 5 days a week! This is how it can feel for them. This is why Sensory Friendly Clothing has developed our incredibly soft seamless feel socks to help minimise the stress of the morning routine (for everyone in the house!) and to help them get through their day!

We are so excited to have our founder and designer, Julie Baker interviewed for this article in The Age today!

Finding comfortable clothes can be an arduous task for some neurodivergent people, but sensory-friendly clothes help make fashion accessible.

Meet our paw-some shop assistants, Rocket and Bailey! 🐾🛍️ Today, they've traded their fur coats for our Sensory Friendly Clothing short sleeved t-shirts, and let's just say they're taking the "paws" in dress code very seriously!

Rocket is on break mode, showing us that napping is a crucial skill in customer service. 💤 Who knew catching ZZZs could be so important on the job? Clearly, he's demonstrating the art of "sensory-friendly snoozing" – a skill we didn't know we needed until now!

Meanwhile, Bailey is putting his A-game into looking cute and charming customers with his irresistible puppy eyes. Who needs a sales pitch when you have that level of adorable persuasion? 😍 We suspect he's secretly studying the art of retail therapy – or should we say, "tail therapy"?

The fluffiest warehouse assistance team in town is ready to assist you virtually with their unparalleled cuteness! 🐾🌟

Embark on the journey of a neurodivergent teen - this photo shows a group of teenagers about to embark on a high sensory stimulating birthday bash. The birthday teen was feeling the swell of overwhelming emotions in anticipation. They chose to dress in Sensory Friendly Clothing, a sanctuary amidst the storm. In the throes of a potentially overwhelming afternoon, the Sensory Friendly Clothing Short Sleeved T-shirt enabled the wearer to feel more calm and relaxed. They appear to be just standing around just like the other teens however they are subtly fidgeting with a secret fidget within the kangaroo pouch at the front of the t-shirt.
This item comes in both child and adult sizing. Check it out here https://sensoryfriendlyclothing.com.au/products/sensory-friendly-clothing-unisex-short-sleeved-hooded-t-shirt-adults

No one wants to hear it, but Christmas is right around the corner, and for some, it can be quite overwhelming.

From bright lights to festive chaos, Christmas might not be everyone's cup of hot chocolate. So, here are a few suggestions to make the season a bit merrier and less 'Ahh!':

🧘‍♀️ Take Breathers: Find a quiet spot to escape the holiday hustle. A few deep breaths can do wonders.

📆 Plan Ahead: Schedule downtime in your festive calendar. It's okay to prioritise yourself over parties.

🎧 Create a Soothing Playlist: Music can be magic to the ears of some. Make a playlist of your favourite calming tunes to help you unwind.

👕 Sensory Friendly Clothing: No scratchy tags or seams – just comfort in every thread. You CAN’T CHOOSE TO PUT SOME XMAS BLING ON YOUR SENSORY FRIENDLY CLOTHES SO YOU CAN FEEL COUNTABLE AND SELF REGULATE DURING THESE EVENTS. You can even wear the Sensory Friendly Gender Neutral Singlet discreetly under your party wear.

We're here to help make this time of year a little comfier for those that need it.

Remember, it's perfectly fine to set boundaries and prioritise your wellbeing during the festive frenzy.

Wishing you a happy and stress-free holiday season! 🎅🎉
