No-Skid Socks

My kiddos have suffered more than one knot on their head and busted lip at the hand of our hard, slippery laminate floors, especially in the winter.  Our poorly insulated home makes for a cold home so socks are always on when the temperature dips.  As the kids run around the house, full speed ahead, injuries abound because they slide so easily in their socks.  So here's what I did:



Easy-peasy, wish I had though of it sooner.  I grabbed their socks, used puff paint left over from stocking decorating and made treads on the bottom of their socks.  Guess what?  It worked like a charm.  No more three year old wipe outs around the corner, nor one year old losing her footing thanks to slippery socks.  Success!
