I was looking for a cute pair of rain boots for my 21 month old daughter and these have been great!  She is petite and many of the boots were too tall  in the leg for her to bend her knee and required adult assistance or wrangling to put on.  These boots have handles that she was able to pull them on herself immediately.  They are just a little big right now (my fault) so I don't think she will be walking "long distance"  around the neighborhood with me yet, but they are perfect for stomping puddles, clomping around the house, and wearing to daycare on a rainy day!
