Ponchos and Water Shoes for Kids?

[The VWL Five]

Anyone have a good store or online site where we can buy these for the kids? Went to Wal-Mart and they had nothing for the kids. Any ideas?

Going in 5 days.....should have planned better.

Thanks.

If you have a Big Lots near you try there. They had water shoes and kids rain ponchos a couple of weeks ago. If you can't find children's sized ponchos you can always buy the adult ones and tie a knot at the bottom of each side to make them shorter. The water shoes are everywhere around here, Walmart, Kmart, Dollar Stores, Rugged Bear, EMS. Good Luck

I found Princess water shoes at Toys 'R Us. They are so cute, and they were not too expensive. They had all sizes.

I just bought kid and adult rain ponchos at SuperTarget 2 days ago. They were in the $1 section at the front of the store.

Got the BEST WATER SHOES EVER at Lands End. A bit pricey for water shoes, but So nice, and easy to put on. Sears carries them too, and online, they are discounted now that it's mid season. Well worth it!!

target has the ponchos for about 89 cents. ours still had the water shoes yesterday.

The ponchos in the parks aren't too outrageous, especially since they can make the difference between wet and happy and wet and miserable.

But when you KNOW the weather's gonna be wet, and you're going out in it anyway, ask the resort housekeepers for some of those plastic shower hats. You put on your socks, slip the shower hats over each foot, then put on your shoes (because you're wearing comfortable shoes to Disney, right?). Your shoes may not be waterproof, but your feet will be!

We take our wonderful, complimentary USA Today and stuff our wet shoes with newspaper at night, swapping it out until the shoes are dry. Plus, we always bring two pairs of shoes a piece. We've been at MK literally ankle-deep in water, and still managed to have a good time.

Hope you have great weather!

We went to Famous Footwear and found Addidas sandals there that are water sandals. They were $12.99 for each girl, and are two tone pink. I loved them, used them for the pool, parks, everything, and they are a good extra pair of sandals to have around the house for running in sprinklers or going to the neighborhood pool. They also had navy/black ones for boys.

Another place to look would be a sporting good store - Academy is what we have, it is a large outdoor store, had water shoes, all kinds of rain gear including all sizes of ponchos.

If you go to Target try looking in the camping area for ponchos, they are often there and in very small packs so they can be hard to spot.

If you have a Dick's Sporting Goods Store in your area, They have Kids size ponchos in the camping area for under $1.
As far as water shoes, they can be found at Several places (all listed above)

Our target had kids ponchos in the dollar section too, but yesterday all the camping stuff (ponchos included) in that section were on clearance 2 for $1.
