My little one has been wearing robeez to learn how to walk. Now she is walking and I am debating what kind of shoes to get her next. I have been told that unless they are walking outside, to keep them barefooted or with slippers.

Has anyone ever used the onestepahead slippers? any recommendations.
thanks.

My mom bought my DD a pair of suede moccasins (Minnetonka brand, I believe) when she started to walk and they were great. They are nicely padded on the bottom and go up over the ankle a bit and velcro together, so they don't slip off. A friend of mine bought DD a pair of slippers (sorry, don't remember brand), but she didn't like them and kept pulling them off. The moccasins may not be the most fashionable footwear, but my DD really liked them and they were inside-only footwear anyway since they have a suede bottom (which grips nicely on hard floors AND carpet by the way). Best of luck to you...
