Shoe bells
When my 14 year old daughter was little, I use to have little bells that I put on her shoes that the shoestrings fit inside of and then the cap screwed over the ends. She loved them because they made noise every time she would move her feet.
I have looked everywhere and can't seem to find them for this baby. Does anyone know if they still make them or where I might be able to find them? Thanks.

I haven't tried a craft store, but the ones I remember looked like little white barrels. You tucked the shoe strings into each end and screwed the cap on. The bell was actually attached to the center of the barrel and everytime the baby moves their feet, they jingle. My daughter absolutely loved them. I wish I could find the pair I used for her.

I ordered mine off of Ebay - they were from a different seller but they were like these.
Shoe Bells - Keep Tys ~ White ~ NIP ~Creative Craft USA - eBay (item 170231783492 end time Jul-21-08 13:22:23 PDT) I'd be glad to send the ones I have to you because we don't use them anymore--we were only using them to keep my son from taking his shoes off at daycare--but I actually squished the bells down so they don't ring anymore because it was a little annoying. So if you were only wanting them for the bells then mine wouldn't do you any good.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!! I have searched everywhere for these. Apparently, I wasn't calling them the correct name. That's why I couldn't find them on ebay. I was using baby shoe bells, etc. Who would have ever thought they would be called Keep Tys. LOL. Anyway, I went on ebay and bought a white pair and a pink pair. I may even buy some more. LOL. Thanks again to all of you for your responses. I knew someone here would be able to help. Have a great weekend everyone.
