If it could keep my three year old from losing his sneakers I might be interested in getting them for him!

Does he have a tendency to lose mittens?

The same thought occurred to me. My son is now 5 and still periodically comes home from playing without his shoes (or just one of them). Recently he came home in his socks, soaked and filthy, carrying just one of his shoes.

"Why did you take off your shoes?" - ME

"To play on Camdan's trampoline." - SON

"Why didn't you put your shoes back on when you were done on the trampoline?" - ME

"Because we had a water balloon fight after that and I didn't want to get them wet." - SON

"But you left your socks on and they are soaking wet." - ME

"I know." - SON

"So where is your other shoe?" - ME

"I don't know. We used our shoes for bases when we played baseball." - SON

"Son, we have bases in our garage. Why didn't you come and get them? How do you play baseball in your wet socks?" - ME

"It was to far to come back here and you would have been mad at me for being wet and not wearing my shoes." - SON

"So go get back to where you were playing baseball and get your other shoe." - ME

"Hank (Neighbor's dog) kept taking the bases so I couldn't find it." - SON

If these shoes come with a lock and key, I'd have to consider a pair depending on the price.
