    I tend to stick with bonds, DD1 wears rio netball knickers over her undies and she doesn't like them without undies

    best n less have ribbed, plain colour, all cotton little girl's knickers in size 2-3, they often go on sale too. More coverage than other shop's low hipped little girl knickers. If your washing machine is hard on elastics, my suggestion is to put the knickers in a zippered wash bag, to protect them.

    i think with most of the products for sale, the emphasis is on the look, to hook the shopper. And not the quality (e.g lasting and surviving washing). Less and less actual fabric is being used too. Very cheap notions are used (pretty but nonlasting elastic). IT's like undies are being sold as a disposable item. They know that most of us don't sew, couldn't make them ourselves.

    Monkey bar undies are great! I bought them from big w - my daughter is tiny in the waist and no bottom and they are size 2-3 which normally 2-3 size is too big. She also is in her size 1 pumpkin patch undies and she has just turned 3. She has been toilet trained for 9 months now.

    Thanks so much ladies. I'll look into monkey bar undies and netball knickers to go over her knickers for school next year.

    I have a dimmeys here too so I'll hopefully be able to get a bargain

    I've never heard of Monkey Bar knickers but will give anything a go - do they do boy jocks as well? I am just struggling to find the thick elastic.
