My 3 y/o daughter really wanted Twinkle Toe shoes that lit up and the ones that having the spinning disc on the bottom of the shoe that enables you to twirl. These were my compromise:P I love winning. She loved them! They are really glittery sparkly and she was thrilled there was a Twinkle Toes magazine that came with it. They are really comfy and easy to put on with the elastic laces and velco. She calls them her running shoes and thinks she is unstoppable when she wears them.
