THE PERFECT LITTLE GIFT GUIDE

The most wonderful time of the year is upon us and with it comes the joy of family, the magic of ritual and a sparkle in our little ones’ eyes. Santa’s arrival can bring about a warm sense of anticipation and for many… a looming dread thanks to all the organising required! But don’t fret, we’ve got you covered. As experts on children, we know what spins their wheels, as well as we know what’s good for their feet. So we’ve created The Perfect Little Gift Guide by BOBUX: easy ideas drawn from popular hobbies loved by children all over the world and of course, the ideal pair of shoes to match. 

 

So put your best foot forward for your daughter, son, niece, nephew or grandchild and rest easy knowing there is an extended returns period. Tick it off your list (not Santa’s!) so you can get on with wrangling the family, planning meals, untangling decorations and finally, putting those feet up for a rest. You’ve earned it.

Designed to protect babies feet like a second skin, these soft leather shoes nurture healthy foot growth and add a bit of fun to any holiday outfit.
