School uniforms may trigger sensory overload in kids who are sensitive to fabrics – our research can help
Many people live with what’s known as sensory over-reactivity or over-responsiveness. Those with this condition experience an over-reaction to sensory stimuli, such as touch. When overstimulated, the brain triggers a fight-or-flight response, which can lead to irritability, withdrawing from people, and temper tantrums.
Over time individuals can learn to manage this condition, but children often struggle. This can significantly affect their daily lives, from morning routines to school work and participation in sports. Although anyone can experience these challenges, they are particularly prevalent in children diagnosed with conditions such as attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism spectrum disorders.
Clothing plays a role in worsening these sensory issues because it remains in constant contact with the skin, providing sensory input. While it is acknowledged in research literature and by practitioners like occupational therapists that items and elements like socks, shoes, seams and labels are major triggers, research in this area is limited. This is likely due to people underestimating the effects of these seemingly minor everyday elements.
It is important to study clothing items to pinpoint the triggers for sensory over-stimulation. These answers can assist in developing clothing that’s comfortable for every child. By combining the expertise of two distinct disciplines – clothing & textiles and occupational therapy – our multidisciplinary team has initiated a research project focused on exploring the diverse elements inherent in clothing and textiles and their relationship to sensory irritation.

An English Teacher's Glossary
Homonym
There are two kinds: the homophone and the homograph. Homophones are words that sound the same but differ in meaning, for example, ‘to’, ‘two’ and ‘too’; homographs are words that are spelled the same but differ in meaning, for example, ‘bat’ (creature) and ‘bat’ (cricket). Homographs don’t necessarily sound the same, for example ‘lead’ (the metal) and ‘lead’ (guide).
English is riddled with homonyms; hence it’s a good language for punning: ‘At the alcoholic’s funeral, six of his friends carried the bier.’
