Maybe as it gets colder there will be more incentive... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/advice-on-getting-my-young-toddler-to-keep-her-socks-on#post-1177799 Sun, 27 Oct 2013 21:45:25 +0000 fancyfunction 1177799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: Always in the car!

She likes to hand me her socks and shoes when I open her car door.

My kid is obsessed with pulling at the velcro. Maybe M is destined to be a flip-flop girl like her mom :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/advice-on-getting-my-young-toddler-to-keep-her-socks-on#post-1177692 Sun, 27 Oct 2013 20:48:41 +0000 fancyfunction 1177692@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm having this issue too! She will also take any shoes off and then go for the socks!. I think I need to get baby shoes with snaps/button. I think these would be the only kind she wouldn't be able to take off. I only put shoes on her when we go outside - it's cold and I want to protect her feet. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/advice-on-getting-my-young-toddler-to-keep-her-socks-on#post-1177690 Sun, 27 Oct 2013 20:48:13 +0000 MrsF 1177690@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks ladies! </p> <p>@MsMini: Yeah, it's so hard at home! I hate to have her in shoes all the time, but her little bare feet feel so cold :( </p> <p>@travelingnanny: Those look so cozy! I'm not super worried about it, but she definitely doesn't understand that socks keep her feet warm and I can only keep my house so warm! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/advice-on-getting-my-young-toddler-to-keep-her-socks-on#post-1177655 Sun, 27 Oct 2013 20:27:36 +0000 travelingnanny 1177655@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe you could try slippers.

Any advice or should I start duct-taping them on? </p>
