Kids Crocs - any alternatives?

Hi. OK, so while I'm here I might as well ask for a bit of advice about this too! DD (3) LOVES her Crocs but is just at that stage of outgrowing one size (8-9) and being nowhere near ready for size 10-11. Her feet absolutely swim about in them. So has anyone found any good alternatives? They need to be good for paddling/puddling, biking, getting generally filthy easy to clean and easy for her to put on by herself. TIA!

Oh, thanks. That must be the fastest ever response to any of my posts! Do you happen to know what the fit is like? Generous?

Same as crocs, i've bought them every year...soooo much cheaper, and they last just as well.

Have to say I hate Crocs but I bought similar-ish style Skechers shoes for my DD last year. They are easy to wash and can be used for playing, swimming, beach etc etc.

I bought them from Freemans in the sale, think they were less than a tenner

Happy to have a look for you and post SweetApril?

Sorry, AvadaKedavra, been incommunicado for a while. Thanks for the offer but I've got my MIL on the case! I remembered she works round the corner from one so she's going to pop in and see what they've got. Still, your kindness has made my day!

I've just got DS some neoprene Doodles from Brantano for £12, they are velcro so he can put them on himself.
