[quote=Anonymous]Yes, it stands for Toddler. I have a 6 yr old and I found that we started needing to shift into kid sizes after about 5.5. She still fits into 5t or 6t stuff, but a lot of it is getting too short. Also, confusingly, size XS in kids can often be equivalent with a size 4-5, which is smaller than a 6T. Cat & Jack at Target has this overlap and I don't really get it, though I guess it doesn't matter because they produce different items for the "T" clothes than the kid sizes (the toddler stuff tends to be younger and more cutesy, the kid sizes tend to be sportier and trendier since elementary kids care more about that and toddlers will mostly wear whatever their parents give them to wear). The weird one is when one brand has a 6T, kids size 6, and a kids size 6X. Carters does this. I still don't really get why, I don't get the 6X sizing. I don't think it's like big and tall sizing because it only exists in size 6 -- there is no 7X or 8X. A mystery.[/quote]
