Ariel has just learned to walk and she'll need some Durable, Comfortable shoes to walk out of the ocean! You'll be pleasantly surprised to find that these aren't the clunky plastic shoes that you've seen hanging out at big stores. These are flexible and comfy. Think sparkly jelly shoes only thicker and more pliable. We love that the strap on the back can be tightened to just the right fit...allowing for growth and easy dancing. Even the soft buckle that holds the strap is flexible and easy for kids. Approx. ages 4-6.
