baby and children's shoes

As a mother to 2 small children, a 4 year old daughter and a 1 year old son, I have tried many types of children, toddler, and baby shoes. Some don't last long enough or I can never tell if they are too small or too big, especially for a baby or toddler. I finally found one brand I can always turn to. Fisher Price's brand to be one of the best. Prices range from $9.99-$14.99 and I find them at Kmart. It's nice to know my kids can pick out their own pair and I don't have to tell them it's too expensive. They last until they are outgrown and also have a wide selection to choose from for each season. Most are velcro but I'm sure I have seen tie-up shoes available. The best feature is that on the bottom of the shoe, you can put your child's foot on it to see if he/she has outgrown it. I think it's much better than the old method of putting the shoe on your squirming child, toddler, or baby and trying to find toes! If you have not tried out Fisher Price brand shoes, I highly recommend that you do!
