Shoes
How many pairs of shoes do your toddlers/preschoolers have/how many do you get annually?
My 5 year old has: Sneaker Twinkle toes A Mary Jane/Cienta type Fall boot Dance shoes She needs a rain boot She'll need a snow boot 2 pairs of water shoes for camp Flip flops Fancy sandal (was a waste) Casual sandal (she barely wore bc she was in camp and wore sneakers daily) Last year she also had a shoe similar to toms in addition to all the above
My 4 year old boy has Sperry Sneaker Rain boot Snow boot Cleats Water shoes Keens Flip flops (were a total waste)
Seems like a lot!!!

Re: Shoes
My twins had/
Brown riding boots Brown suede boots Black uggs (fake) Snow boots (worn once) Pink converse Pink gap loafers Water shoes (bought 2 but wore 1) Flip flops -never worn) Pink dress Denim dress Gold dress Silver dress (wore on Xmas eve and for dance) White sandals Gold gladiators
All winter they mostly wore the riding boots All summer was mostly the water shoes outside bc we don't go out much other than the backyard. Occasionally the white sandals.
I'm cutting way down this year. It's ridiculous!! These aren't counting a few they had hand me down or ones that didn't fit and I never returned.

Re: Shoes
Let's see...
Fall/winter are: Sneakers Casual maryjanes Black dressy shoes Snow boots
Spring/summer are: Everyday sports sandal Dressier (but still comfy/practical) sandal Flop flops or water shoes Depending on occasions, possibly dressy white shoes (ie this year we had a bunch of formal occasions so I got a pair at Payless, last year there was no need)

Re: Shoes
My son is five and has always had one pair of sneakers, loafers, crocs and a pair of snow boots
He has wide feet and wears orthotics so it's not like there's a ton of stuff available
Now for kindergarten we've got One pair fancy sneakers (gray new balance) Two pairs regular sneakers One pair loafers for church One pair sperry that I happened to find on sale One pair crocs One pair rain boots One pair snow boots

Re: Shoes
Wow. For my 2.5 year old son, he has a pair of water shoes, sandals and sneakers. That's it. In winter, he has snow boots and 1-2 pairs of sneakers. His feet grow so quickly if I had more than that he'd never wear them!

Re: Shoes
I am SOOO not a shoe person for DD She get 2 pairs of good shoes a season and then Crocs in the summer and some cheapy "leather" type boots in the winter if it goes with an outfit etc Oh and a cheap pair of dressy shoes to wear for Christmas
I barely even buy her snow boots as she hates being out in the snow
Shoes are such a waste because they literally get ONE season out of them
At 5 she still couldn't care less so I am gong to milk that as long as I can

My 1 year old has 3 pairs of sneakers (all three were hand me downs from my nephew who didn't wear any of them) a pair of flip flops a pair of sandals a pair of closed toe sandals
Ill be buying him a pair of dress shoes and boots. I don't bother with rain boots because half the time, we aren't home when it starts raining.

2 pairs flip flops
A pair of casual shoes Tap shoes and ballet shoes for dance school For the holidays I buy her a pair of dressy shoes to go with her dress The winter she gets snow boots because she loves to go in the snow.

He has a pair of TOMS
A pair of Ralph Lauren boat shoes (Like Sperry)
Sneakers from Stride Rite
Water Shoes for camp
Clarks dress shoes I got for nice occasions
