We have shoes with LEDs that flash. Why not have shoes that make noises when a child walks? It could mimic the clomp-clomp of heavy workboots, the slap-slap of sandles, the squeak-squeak of wet shoes on tile floors, or the squish-squish of waterlogged feet.

They'd be helpful for parents who want to keep track of their kids in parks and on walks, and for searching for them when their children decide to play a spontaneous and undesired game of hide-and-seek.

It might also encourage children to get more exercise. Of course, it might work just like giving the kid a drum.

I think those are already there. There are children shoes that squeak when they walk.
