Good place to get tap shoes for kids in Bethesda/Rockville/Gaithersburg?

[Anonymous]

I'm thinking of signing up my daughter for a class that includes tap and ballet. Where have you gotten tap shoes for kids in the area? What tends to be the typical cost? My daughter is 4 if that helps so I would imagine she would outgrow her shoes fairly quickly.

TIA

I just had to quickly buy ballet shoes for my three year old, and found them at Payless for about $18. They also had tap shoes, and seemed to have many different sizes. Since the ballet instructor suggested going to Payless, the quality seems to be acceptable, if not very good. I didn't have time for online, but may order from this site in the future, since her foot grows so fast.....

I second the Payless suggestion. I, like a dumbass, went to a special store to buy my kid's tap and ballet shoes before I knew Payless and Target sold dance clothes and shoes. I also bought some dance stuff online once I figured it out. Google children's dance clothes discount (or coupons)
