Teva makes great sandals - what can I say? I've only tried it for myself before but wanted to get one for my kid for the beach, the pool and getting on the bus before and after the pool. She was in between sizes for crocs - size 1 was too small, size 2 was too big, sigh. So, I gave Teva a shot. It's great - I wasn't sure she'd like it but once she wore it, she had no complaints. I was worried that the front of the shoe would be a bit long and she might trip over it or snag it while climbing but she managed to run and climb in it without problems.
