Tired of tying shoes on a child that never seem to stay on? Or are your tired of Velcro shoes never staying put? Well perhaps Robeez are for you, the parent who’s about to throw some tiny shoes through a window.

Robeez shoes are intended to act like bare feet, by providing room to grow while giving support. And thanks to the elastic ankles, they won’t fall off like other weightier shoes. The company makes shoes for kids up to age 4, each designed for certain stages of the child’s life as well as different activities.

For example, the Robeez Mini Shoez model is aimed at kids 3-18 months that are in the stages of kicking, crawling, and beginning to walk. They’re also specifically designed for playing on the driveway, daycare, or special occasions.

There’s even an entire line of Green products in the company’s Eco Collection. These shoes are made with water-soluble inks, organic cotton, and natural leather.

Lastly, the shoes are hand washable and are quite durable overall, not to mention stylish. Check out the full line at Robeez.com.

With the recent explosion of iPhone apps it seems there is one for every occasion or event. Why do I need to turn my cell phone into a mini lightsaber? Because it’s cool. But there are a few that would be extremely handy for parents with babies. Jindrich Sarson is selling the Baby Monitor and Alarm for $2.99, and it turns your iPhone into a monitor that will call another phone in the house when your baby wakes up. It can also replay all the noises made while your baby slept and it has a function called “Mum’s Voice” that can play back any recorded message when your baby starts to cry (the most common being a recording of the mother’s voice.)

Another app that can be used to entertain the toddlers while you’re trying to kill time is FooPets Tuxedo Kitten (they also make a FooPets Marley Puppy based on the film Marley and Me which I think is a little cuter). This app features virtual pets which you feed and play with. They respond according to your actions. This isn’t the latest supercomputer but the animals are cute and will keep your kid entertained.
