Our Top Picks for the Tootsies



Make sure your children start off the school year in the right pair of shoes! All of us Mommies are proud to recommend our favorites. Our top picks for this school season are Umi, Eleven Shoes, and Robeez. All of these companies offer a wide range of sizes and style choices perfect for your child's school days!

IthicaIt might be shocking to learn that the best shoe is no shoe at all, but it's the truth — barefoot is best. However, Umi knows that kids need a shoe that offers comfort and durability.

Not only do the Mommies love the shoes that Umi has to offer, but our kiddos love them, too!
