As your child develops, the need for
shoes becomes more critical. You don’t just need shoes, you need the right
shoes. They need to be roomy enough for your child to wiggle his toes, but not
so loose that he trips over his own feet.
As he starts to walk, he won’t be
steady on his feet. The right shoes can help this, but the wrong shoes will
inhibit his ability to walk. The more he falls, the more he’ll lose confidence
in his ability to walk on his own.
The more frustrated he gets with his
shoes, the less he’ll want to wear them, making it a daily struggle for you to
put them on. Keep shoes off of his feet as much as you can to enable him to
grow and learn specially as your kids start school.
When the need for shoes arises,
there are a lot of reputable brands with shoes to fit every kind of foot.
Stride Rite and Bobux kids shoes have both
been around for decades and have done the research needed to know exactly how
to foster growth in the feet while still protecting them.
Unfortunately, these shoes won’t cut
it as your child grows into the adolescent and teenage years. You’ll have to
find other brands that can continue to protect your child’s feet and foster the
growth they need throughout their childhood and puberty.
You need to pay close attention to
growth spurts and other factors that could influence the need for new shoes.
Find a local store that can help measure your child’s feet and put them in the
right pair of shoes for their size, shape, and gait.
It’s important that your child be
comfortable or their feet won't’ develop right, leading to more problems later
on. Especially if your child plays a sport, their feet need to be protected in
a way that doesn’t cause long term damage to the bone structure or integrity of
the feet that will carry them throughout the rest of their life.
