Boots, Boots, Boots!

And Everything Else On Your List at Zappos!

There are two kinds of gifts under a tree: the kind you need and the kind you want. And when it comes to kids, the latter tends to be the pleaser. But how are parents supposed to tackle the obstacle of merging the two? That’s where we come in.

With thousands of brands and styles to choose from, Zappos.com is the answer to all of your gifting woes, especially when it comes to kids. And this season, there’s no better way to combine their wants and needs than with the trendy winter boot lineup. This way, they can stay cool on the playground while you can feel good about keeping their toes warm.

And no boot does a better job of keeping up with trends, for kids and adults alike, like UGG Australia. The “Bailey Button Triplet” boots are easy to pull on and take off, come in several different colors and have cute buttons on the side as an added feature. Other than trendy, these kid boots also do the important job of protecting little feet. One hundred percent fine woolen sheepskin keeps them warm when they need to be, but is also breathable so their feet don’t burn up while they’re inside. Plus, they’re lightweight, which is perfect for professional tag players.

Next on our lineup: Crocs. Known for their cool and comfy clogs popular with kids of all ages, the brand has come out with the equally cool and comfy “Crocband Gust Boot.” Made of durable nylon upper with a hook-and-loop closure and rubber outsoles, snow and ice are no match for these bad boys. So bring on the igloos and the snowman-making parties. These boots can handle it.

Now if you’re shopping for a little girl with some spunk, “Blooms” boots by SKECHERS Kids are the way to go. Faux fur lining and a cushioned foot bed guarantee long-lasting comfort, while the rubber outsole makes them durable. But, most important, these boots come outfitted with metallic and sequin accents in the shape of a peace sign or stars. And everybody knows there’s no better way to make a little girl happy than to give her something that sparkles.

Last but not least: Stride Rite’sPrincess Cozy Boots.” The name certainly speaks for itself: pink sparkle suede color and faux fur trim scream “princess,” while the zipper closure and rubber outsoles make them convenient for cold days. The only trick will be getting her to stop wearing them once summer arrives. So this holiday season, give the gift of necessity and style to those who deserve it most: kiddos…at least the ones on the “nice” list!
