As long as your kid's feet aren't too narrow, these are fantastic sandals. They're surprisingly durable and are easy for kids to put on that even a 2-year-old can do it. It provides ample coverage, though with exposed toes, few amusement park rides may not approve. I purchased one in several sizes so kids can grow into. I thought I can hand these down to younger kids, but because these are worn so often, they bottom has comfortably molded to that child. I think the younger siblings deserve their own opportunity of molding their own sandals.
