Tights
Tights are one of the few garments where the entire leg gets feedback at once about seams, pressure and temperature. The visual support below helps keep the dressing moment calm even when the fabric pushes back.

About this visual support
Tights deliver a sensory double dose. The fabric presses along the whole leg, the seam at the toes tends to land crooked, the waistband settles tight, and the material can feel both cold and clingy at the same time. For many children, the morning stall at this garment isn't defiance, it is a real discomfort signal from the skin.
When getting dressed has a visual schedule, the child gets something to anchor the eyes on while the leg meets the fabric. The sequence — roll up, place the toes, pull over the heel, smooth out and lift to the waist — becomes three or four concrete pictures instead of one long instruction. A practical tip just for tights: roll the whole leg down to the toe before putting the foot in, then the seam lands where it should from the first move and you skip the big toe-stop halfway up.
If the leg still pulls away, Routined lets you slot a short pause between tights and the next item, giving the body a moment to settle before the skirt or dress goes on.
