Are crocs okay?

[Deleted]

My child goes to the splash pad and at school, they do waterplay and sometimes she needs to slip on shoes quickly. Are crocs fine? I am not putting her in danger? Or ruining her feet?
Currently she has hello kitty ones that she is growing out of. If I replace with plain pink = $25. If I get Elsa ones -$35. If I get ones that light up - $40. I am afraid if I give her plain pink, she will keep squishing in the hello kitties.

Crocs are totally fine for water play. I would not get light up crocs though, in case the water damages them.

Crocs aren't allowed at our daycare, but if they're allowed I think it's fine.

Crocs are fine. Get the plain pink and throw away the Hello Kitty.

I'm in line to buy baby crocs right now.

I send water shoes but crocs are also fine and allowed at our daycare. I got the knock offs from Chidren's Place and they were cheap.

Crocs are fine. The only issue is they are ugly as sin which really isn't an issue.

They are not allowed at our daycare during water play, so i assume there is some reason they are bad for this

My kids have both been clumsy as hell in them, so they are a no go at our house.

I think it's fine if you use the heel strap. They're actually really good for kid's feet (say many podiatrists I know). And I think they're cute on kids.

Our daycare prefers Croc-type shoes for water play - easy on/off and they dry quickly. I bought knock offs on Amazon and they've been fine.

They are great for water play.

perfect for water play. And, you can get cheap ones at Canadian Tire
