We've moved to a house with acreage, and well, let's just say it's not all verdant green and manicured. :) There are a lot of foxtails and other plants that shed stickers everywhere. My daughter is in Stride Rites, but her socks, and worse, the flannel lining of her shoes, is full of stickers after even only half a walk.
She's taken to going out in her sandals instead... which collects fewer stickers, but I don't feel terribly wonderful about having her feet that vulnerable.
Any ideas?
