Shoes for a crawling baby in Florida

6 replies

Bluemary3000 · 08/03/2009 22:23

I have a 15 mth DD who has only just learnt to crawl due to having overly flexible hips.

I am due to go to Florida at the end of April and want her to be able to crawl when and wherever she wants, however I only have pram shoes, which are too heavy/hot for Floridian weather.

The physio has said she is not ready for cruisers really, but agrees she needs something to wear on her feet, so if anyone knows of any places I can buy suitable hot weather shoes/sandals, I would be v grateful.

Thanks

very soft leather shoes should be OK. Can;t think of the names now, Robbies? Bobux?
Our boy crawled and cruised out doors in them all the other summer.
Leather will breath so she won;t get horrid sweaty feet- use with out socks if its V hot.

What about these?

Both DC's had the little leather shoes for crawling and cruising but these ones look especially good for hot weather.

Also beware that depending on where you're at in FL, fire ants are a major problem. We went to visit DS's grandparents on the Gulf Coast and were told not to put him on the grass anywhere because of the fire ant hazard. Just FYI.

Soft Star Shoes

These are excellent shoes, worth every penny. DD1 is very hard to fit, falls over a lot in bad shoes, these fit like a dream and are very flexible and comfortable.
