I liked them for Little A especially when he was at the crawling stage and they’d protect his knees from getting the knee burn most babies get from crawling.
I did not, however, know that BabyLegs also created socks. Did you? Yes, BabyLegs also makes Baby Socks and they look so cute, even the ones for boys. They recently sent Little A two pairs to try …read more
