I bought these tights when I was 4-6 years old to combine with a Danskin little girls swimsuit with a skirt. They match the swimsuit perfectly and my daughter loved her new dance class outfit. I had a hard time putting them on but they fit her perfectly. (Think how hard it is to put tights on properly, then add a small child who has no idea what's going on in the equation.) For reference, my 3.5 year old daughter is about 40 inches tall and weighs 38 pounds. , so they are small, I washed them once (in the washing machine on a delicate mode, in a bag), and they became like new.
