Janie and Jack older girl sizing ?

[jess]

Hello...I've bought Janie and Jack, buy only as gifts for baby girls. I was hoping someone knew how the bigger sizes ran? I'm looking at the size 5T, for a four-year-old who is currently in a size 5-6. I've checked the size chart and she's right on the outer edge...any opinions would be appreciated. Thanks!

I wouldn't do it. My DD wore 5T last year when she was 4. But she wears a 5-6 now and is too big for the J&J 5T.

My dd is 4 and 1/2 and can still just fit into J & J 5T. She's only average-sized for her age, though. I'm not sure that a taller 4-year-old would fit into 5T. I've heard they may increase their sizes up to size 6 in the future.
