These socks have cut our morning sock battle down by about 75%!  They are well made, good quality, thick and soft.  I had to show my daughter online that they are indeed girls socks, as she did not believe me and wasn't going to even try them (she's soon to be 6 years old).  These are the only socks she will wear comfort-wise, but she still fights a little because 1) she still worries they will hurt even though they haven't bothered her so far; 2) she thinks they look like boys socks.  If these were pink and gray or purple and gray I have a feeling she's be eager to put them on in the morning.
