Shoes to stop toddler slipping around the pool

Do these exist?

Just got back from holiday and my toddler kept slipping around the pool area. Just wondering if anyone has had any shoes which have worked to stop slipping over?

Do those waterproof shoes that you get to go in the sea work or still slippy?

After my knee replacement, I was doing aquaerobics in my local pool, and I got a pair of shower slipper socks from Ability Superstore; as I was terrified of slipping.
I don't know if they do them for children though.

Crocs. Ugly but horrifically comfortable!

My kids, now teenagers, used Crocs when they were younger.

We've just bought these for our 18 month old dd, ahead of our holiday. She loves them...

Both DC have these www.decathlon.co.uk/boys-pool-sandals-blue-id_8384321.html

They were recommended by our swimming instructor and all the kids now have them. Super cheap and practical. I would recommend downsizing slightly so that the elastic holds them firmly onto their feet.

Hotunas from sports direct. Asda sometimes do a cheaper version for about 3-4 quid.

Another vote for hot tuna ones.
Super light weight, so dont get water logged, but sturdy enough to actually walk about.

Thanks! The hot tuna ones are 2 for £8 or £5 each at sports direct anyway. Bargain
