The sleeves were purchased for my 8 month old granddaughter who was going to Turkey with her parents for a week’s holiday. Previously it was necessary to keep her in long sleeves and leggings to deter her from on scratching but the sleeves meant she cd wear all the pretty dresses and shorts and be as cool as all the other children. Her skin has really improved as a result of the exposure and inability to scratch. The mits are soft and silky and she accepted wearing them quite quickly. Definitely would have been a different holiday experience without them. Now that she is home they will continue to be worn when her little legs and arms are bare. A brilliant, simple idea that really works.
