When we moved from Darwin to Adelaide with Olivia we had to try & get her to keep socks on (bear in mind she had worn pretty much nothing apart from a nappy and a singlet for the first 14 months of her life, so this was a REAL struggle for us!)

The only shoe that worked (ie stayed on and didn't annoy her: she didn't even try and tug them off.....in fact she loved them!) was the Robeez pre-walkers. (Just Google Robeez...) You can get these online.....they are ADORABLE, a bit expensive, but they are so well made and well designed and approved by paediatrics for baby foot development etc.........& best of all, they STAY ON!!
