First, remember that if he can get dressed he can get undressed., not necessarily a good thing. Give him pants with an elastic waist and shirts that have large neck openings. Get him a teddy bear to dress. Do not expect him to do anything complicated like buttons or socks. I

Answer 3

Give him pants, then you get a bigger pair of pants for yourself or just use the ones you have and start puting them on while looking at him, then point to his pants, and lead him in how to put them on. you'll have to take the pants you just put on and put them on again so he'll begin to understand the picture. Immediately reward him when he puts his pants on. Laughing, gigglying, and playing are good indicators that you're pleased with him. Do it as a routine at the same time each day. It will stick throughout time.
