She doesn't do pants yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-dress-themselves#post-2642978 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 21:09:28 +0000 whiskers 2642978@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Some time vefore she turned 3. She can't do buttons, but that's about it and she's almost 4. I can't remember the last time I dressed her (except for pjs because she draaaags it out). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-dress-themselves#post-2642960 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 20:36:31 +0000 skipra 2642960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I guess around 3.5 but at 4 he still needs help with socks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-dress-themselves#post-2642957 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 20:33:04 +0000 MrsSRS 2642957@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>3, everything except buttons and zippers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-dress-themselves#post-2642904 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 18:41:16 +0000 Foodnerd81 2642904@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She's 3 and has been able to for a few months. But she doesn't always do it- sometimes she doesn't want to, sometimes I don't want to wait. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-dress-themselves#post-2642862 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 16:55:44 +0000 Truvy 2642862@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter is 4 and still needs some help with getting shirts on, but can do everything else, including socks and shoes herself, although she is very slow at it. She didn't really start dressing herself until 3.5 or so but she has been picking out her own outfits since she was much younger, which is not always a good thing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-dress-themselves#post-2642766 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 14:42:54 +0000 mediagirl 2642766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She's 4 now and she can do everything except for socks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-dress-themselves#post-2642765 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 14:41:59 +0000 KayKay 2642765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD1 was a bit before 2.5. Sometimes things would be on backwards/inside out, but for the most part, she was good. She has picked out her clothes and dressed herself almost 100% of the time since 3. It's not always an asset ;) ha</p> <p>DD2 is almost 2 and is making pretty good progress on socks, pants, and shirts. She figured out (taught at preschool) the flip-trick for getting coats on last week. So I'm guessing she'll be on the same timeline? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-dress-themselves#post-2642757 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 14:33:12 +0000 Mama Bird 2642757@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>3.5 to 4, but realistically I still dress DS a lot because he's not into it in the morning, and in good days it's a bit of bonding time before we leave the house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-dress-themselves#post-2642751 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 14:26:07 +0000 MrsRoo 2642751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 3.5 year old can do her undies and bottoms, but can only put on her shirts if they are pretty baggy and she's in a good mood. If a shirt is fitted or she's whiny, forget it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-dress-themselves#post-2642740 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 14:22:11 +0000 PinkElephant 2642740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My four year old started (willingly) dressing herself from head to toe around four. She still needs help zipping her coat, but that's about it. </p> <p>My two year old does undies &amp; pants -shirts/dresses areabiut 50/50, and she manages her socks maybe 25% of the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-dress-themselves#post-2642725 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 14:06:48 +0000 KT326 2642725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started making my son get dressed by himself shortly after he turned 4. He could have done it sooner but most of the time it was just faster if I did it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-dress-themselves#post-2642699 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 13:54:39 +0000 lamariniere 2642699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son, probably mostly by 3.5? Socks around 4. My daughter could put on everything except tights by the time she was 2.

DD1 is 3 and I honestly don't really even think she is close but we also don't practice very much either...just wondering what the norm is. </p>
