In need of some information

[Guest guest]

Hello my name is Liz Deutsch. I am an ABA therapist and I am

currently attending San Francisco State University getting my

Bachelors degree in Apparel Design and Merchandising. I am in a class

this semester called product development and we are responsible for

coming up with and designing a line of clothing. My group and I

decided upon the idea of incorporating weight resistance into

clothing for children with sensory needs. Our idea is to add weights

to regular clothing (ex. Sweatshirt, pants, t-shirt, scarf, etc.) in

order for children to meet their sensory needs. The weights will be

hidden in the shoulders and lap. As part of the class we need to do

market research and figure out more about our target market. There

are some questions we would like to ask to get a general feel of

what's needed and would be helpful for children.

1.What is your relationship to a child or children with sensory

needs? Mother, therapist etc.

2.What is your child/children age?

3.Where do you buy sensory products for your child/children?

Catalogue, Internet, and/or a store? Which one?

4.What types of clothing would best fit your childs needs? (ex. T-

shirt, pants, etc)

5.Would you/your child be interested in clothing that helps meet

their sensory needs?

6.Where would you most like to find clothing like ours? Catalogue,

Internet, and a store? Where would be a good location for a store?

7.What suggestions are you willing to share with us regarding our

design ideas for these products? Examples- fabrics, colors, sizes,

price

Thank you so very much for even taking the time to read my post! If

you choose to answer my question your information will be very

valuable to me and help my product to be the best it can be!!

Thank you!! Liz Deutsch
