Recently, my husband and I purchased our 13 month old grandson’s first pair of shoes at the Stride Rite in Willow Grove Mall. The gentleman who waited on us was so experienced and caring. He advised us that usually the toddlers cry when first putting on shoes so he had our grandson stand in his new sneakers and then finally walk holding on to the chairs. By the time we left our grandson was perfectly comfortable in his shoes. The salesman was so reassuring and kind. I would highly recommend this store to anyone.
