Dinosaur shoes – Raarrrr!
When Joe first opened the box to reveal a red dinosaur eye looking up at him, he shrieked and threw the box on the floor. I showed him the dinosaur footprint on the sole, the T-Rex on the other side, but he just kept insisting the shoes were too scary.
It was only when he noticed that the eyes (both the eye of the T-Rex and the “scary” eye) flashed red – I think he discovered this because he was throwing the shoes on the floor, you know, to show them who was boss – that he decided they were cool and deigned to have them on his feet.
Now he absolutely loves them. I love them too. They’re well-made, obviously comfortable and chunky enough that he can wear them in icy weather.
I asked Joe what his favourite thing about them is and he said, “The scary eyes…”
Toddlers are weird.
