[blparent] Bells; Yea or Ney?

[Brandy W]

Unfortunately no. I have 1 children's shoe store in town that sells them,
but they are really expensive so I tend to buy them on line. There are 3
brands, but squeaky shoes usually finds them all. They do sell them on itcy
bitcy, and amazon for sure. Bran

shoes, especially for outdoors, because I think those work better than
bells.
