I am looking to buy my daugther's preschool room some new art smocks, as the current ones that they have are way too big, just go over their head, and hang so loosely that they don't do a great job (http://www.discountschoolsupply.com/Product/ProductDetail.aspx?product=29275&category=2697&CategorySearch=&Brand=&Price=).

The class is mostly young 4 years olds, with a few older 3's, so that hopefully helps with sizing. I would like something made of coated cotton (not just a cotton over shirt) like this:

Long sleeves would be ok. Has to be easy on/off. The one above is a little pricey for me, and it also needs to work for boys or girls. I am open to going on Etsy or whatever. Please let me know if you have found one you love. Thank you!

I really like the ones Ikea had, but unfortunately they don't carry them anymore in my area. They are long sleeve, with velcro to adjust the sleeve length, and of course cheap. If you could find some that would be my suggestions.

I've searched Etsy and there are many cute options but too expensive for my needs.
