Toddler:
tod·dler [tod-ler] n.
1. One who toddles, especially a young child learning to walk.*
Yep. That’s Charlotte. While she’s quite confident in her walking abilities, she’s not all that stable just yet. Why on earth children’s clothing makers would create toddler socks without skidproof bottoms is beyond me. We have quite a few really slippery socks, and I set out to fix this problem.
You’ll need:
Fabric paint (I bought white and hot pink puff paint)
Cardboard (I used an empty cereal box)
A pencil
Scissors
First, use your little one’s foot or a shoe to trace a fake foot on the cardboard. You’ll need two of these little feet.
Slip the cardboard feet into your socks. This creates a hard surface to paint on. Paint on dots or designs, and wait for your socks to dry.
I wash Charlotte’s clothes on gentle and dry them on low, and the nonslip bottoms have stayed put so far!
