First of all - WHY do clothes size 3T differ SO much from store to store? It's impossible to shop for your kids without them by your side (which, as we know is a huge pain sometimes ;) ) because of the differences in sizing. To add to it - WHY is there size 3T and 4T as well as size 3 and 4?? And the size 3's and 4's are SO much bigger! Am I missing something???

Toddler sizes leave room for diapers and pull ups. That is why there is a difference between a size 4 and a size 4t. You just need to learn what size your child is in for certain brands. For instance I know that old navy and gap run large. Therefore, when my daughter wore size 4/5 I purchased 4t at these stores. Know your brands and your life will be much easier.

A kid goes from infant sizes (usually up to 24mos) then to toddler sizes (2T-4T) then 'big kids clothes' (usually 3-16) The sizes vary from store to store and brand to brand simply because of the manufacturer. I bet that you fit one brand much better than you do another, right?

Because the sizes without the T is for kids who are small ands the sizes with T are for toddlers who are expected to be smaller thats why the sizes are so different.

it is just like our adult clothing. different companies make the clothes about the same size. but it is never right on. just like when you buy a pair of jeans. if you buy a pair of Lee jeans, and a pair of Levi jeans, even if they are the same size, they are not the same size. I guess it also shows that everyone is made different shapes and sizes also. good luck shopping!

Yeah the T. If there is a T beside a number (ex:2t) this means it is for toddlers. If it does not have a T than it is for older children!!!!
