The results of this study were as follows:
1. The garments preferred by the boys were Tshirts, long trousers and short pants, while that preferred by the girls was onepiece dress.
2. The convenience of dressing and undressing in clothing life was required because it was necessary to help the children dress and undress.
3. A convenient clothing was required for playing; Half front opening or front opening of an upper garment, round or Vneck collars and cuffsless or elastic corded cuffs were desirable. Front opening of pants was desirable. Some necessary attachments for convenient clothing were zipper, snap, big button and velcro. Articles required for dressing were vinyled pinafore and diaper.
It is necessary to make and distribute clothing for feebleminded children which is functional and at the same time easy to wear and take off. And it is necessary to guide the children to dress and undress for the sake of themselves.
