If you spent the majority of your childhood listening to your parents yell about how painful stepping on your LEGO pieces was, surprise them with a pair of comfy building block slippers to make up for the times you caused them pain.
These slippers thankfully are not made of LEGO, so your parents will be happy to step right in them. Although they only come in one size and look very large, they are made to fit most feet and are extremely protective on hard surfaces. Coming in both blue and red, you can get a pair for each parent.
Here’s a fun idea: if you have kids of your own now, grab a pair for the whole family and design comfy buildings with giant, cushion-y, blocks. The bonus? No one’s feet will get hurt and everyone is happy.
