Girls roller skates - anyone heard of some that grow with child?

Was about to order regular quad roller skates for dd, when friend said you could buy a version that can be adjusted so they grow with the child.

As cheapest decent ones I can find are at least £25 plus p and p this seems like a good idea, but have trawled google to no avail. Anyone seen any?

What about these inline with removable training wheels size 8.5-13.5

Yes, I have just bought a pair on ebay. They're called Sooperskates, are made from plastic, size 8-12. They look fab, can't wait till I see dd's face when she gets them! Don't know what shop they came from originally though...

We got these from ToysRus. They are adjustable underneath to change the length and also have different settings so you can lock the wheels, have them so they only roll forwards, or just 'normal'.

They are quite good for a small child to learn on but not if your dd is older or wants to do more 'serious' skating. Cheap though!

Thanks for suggestions - will wait and see if anyone has any more and decide tonight

Like argos selling safety kit at £4.99 anyway - JLewis wanted £10!

I have dora ones for dd2 inline and adjustable with safety stuff 19.99 ebay but they are in toymaster too.

We have the same ones Pixel has linked too. But DD is only 3.5yo (had them a year) and they are really only suitable for little ones learning. Good at £9.99 though.
