Are kids' shoes with blinking lights washable? My daughter had a pee accident in them. Simple surface washing is not an option. Thanks,-- JeannieE-mail: jeannie at talisweb dot see oh em

Simple surface washing is not an> option. sure it is. pee isn't a big deal unless she's ill. if you're worried about an odor, surface wash with an enzyme product like Nature's Miracle (available at pet stores), but usually toddler pee doesn't have any residual odor, IME. anyway, anything more than surface washing will likely damage the lights. stomping in big puddles will, so tossing in the washer certainly would. i'm looking for a new pair of light up shoes for a boy, preschool size 11, NOT sports related. he had dump truck ones, but all i can seem to find now have sports theme (yeah, i'm picky. i dislike sports everything on boy's clothes. not all boys care about sports)lee

My mom always throws them in the washing machine even.However, if done on too rough a cycle or too often the light piece comes off.Although I am not sure if this is an effect of the wash on the glue(unlikely) or the drier. In any case a single wash shouldbe fine and you can always glue the light piece back in. Best-- Patricia

You could try putting them in a mesh bag meant for delicates andwashing on the gentlest cycle, I suppose. --Dorothy There is no sound, no cry in all the worldthat can be heard unless someone listens ..

I've washed them in the washing machine and had no problems. I didn't putthem in the dryer though.-- Sue (mom to three girls) "Jeannie" wrote in messagenews:x2m5e.7067$kk2.1565@twister.socal.rr.com...> Are kids' shoes with blinking lights washable?
