Slip-Proof Socks

October 2nd, 2008 by admin

It’s bound to happen; I mean, if you put socks on your kids, they are bound to slip and fall, so how can we prevent this? Telling your kids not to run in their socks isn’t going to work; after all, they are kids, and kids don’t listen half of the time. So how do we prevent our kids from this disaster?

Slip-proof socks are an effective method of preventing children from falling while running around the house in socks. First you have to know that the thicker the socks are, the less likely you are to slip in them.

If this method does not seem to work out, you could always make the socks slip-proof yourself. Using fabric paint on the bottom of your socks is one way to ensure a non-slip effect. Make sure you wash the socks at least once before you apply the fabric paints. Once you have done that, just lay out the socks and make sure the bottom is facing you. Because there are a variety of styles, shades, and colors, you can get very creative with the designs on the bottom of your socks. You could do a uniform design, or you could do something crazy. Also, be sure that you don’t make the paint too thick; this will cause an uncomfortable feeling when walking in the socks. It is best to wait about 72 hours before wearing or washing the socks once the paint is applied.

Another way to ensure that your socks are slip-proof is to buy rubber, which can be found in a roll. All you need is the rubber and fabric glue. You can cut all kinds of shapes and sizes and glue them to the bottom of your socks; just be creative. No more having to worry about the tragedy of your child slipping in his or her socks. All it takes it a little bit of effort and a smidgen of imagination.
