Shoes that fit and are fun for KIDS - Skribbies!!!

My son's feet are growing every single day, now that he is at school he only gets to wear one pair of black school shoes, compulsory but a little dull.

Skribbies arrive with all of the above


The perfect weekend shoes came along the Skribbies high tops and we both love them! 
I love them because they are a great shape, and made well, and they look nice. 
My son loves them because he can draw on them, they are trainers, and you can put stickers on them. He can make them his own, and its then really unique to him.

These cool high tops are also really comfy which means we have a really happy boy.
Sound weird? well not really, at the last world book day, he dressed as the book the 'highway rat' we got the pens and he drew lots of characters on them, lots of rat faces and it was fun. He came home we rubbed them off, at Easter he drew lots of eggs on them, which went very well with our egg hunt.

On weekends when he goes to visit friends and family, and very quickly becomes a talking point. My son who is usually a little shy, he becomes less shy when he has them on, because he feels confident. I can see that he slowly starts to tell people about his shoes and then they all want a turn. This instantly give he a chance to show off, bringing him out of his shell. 


Its all in the name of fun and self expression, he gets to show off his creativeness and use imagination! He loves adding characters, and just playing in them.
Am I worried he is going to write all over everything - NO - we have had that chat and he knows he has these shoes so he can write on them, he is also 5 and I have to give the kid some credit he has some brain forming!
