These are plush bunny slippers with floppy ears, a small pink nose and a face that does a great deal of unfair work on any adult in the vicinity. Put them on a toddler and the shuffling walk that follows is genuinely difficult to watch without commenting.
They are one of those gifts that produces a reaction in the room before the recipient has any idea what is happening. The parents tend to be more excited than the child, at least for the first few minutes.
The sole is soft and intended for indoor use, so their job is keeping small feet warm on floorboards and tiles through the colder months. That is a real problem in most homes and these solve it while being considerably more fun than socks.
They come in a range of colours and in sizes running from infant through to little kid, which makes finding the right fit straightforward. They are also a best seller in girls’ slippers, so plenty of other households have already reached the same conclusion.
The bunny theme makes them an obvious fit for an Easter basket, where they provide something lasting alongside the chocolate that will not survive the weekend. They work equally well for a birthday or as a new-baby gift a size or two ahead.
They are also a sound choice when buying for somebody else’s child, since they are useful, universally agreeable and carry no risk of arriving in a household that has banned sugar. Be warned that every parent who sees them tends to ask where they came from.
