During the first months of life, babies do not need shoes, although many manufacturers take numbers adapted to them and see many children under one year old who already wear shoes. Actually some socks or booties is the only need that the baby's little foot has until it starts to walk. This way, you can move your feet easily and you will be more comfortable.
Even when the baby starts to crawl it is not necessary to wear shoes, as this would make it difficult for them to move. Anti-slip socks or even the bare foot is the most appropriate.
How should babies' first shoe be?
When the baby starts taking his first steps, it is the moment when we should buy his first pair of shoes. It is convenient not to buy the most beautiful, nor the cheapest and, of course, never to put those inherited from a brother or cousin. The ideal is that the shoes have these characteristics:
- That they be of skin because this material is flexible and allows the foot of the baby to breathe.
- The last of the shoe must be wide and the front part flexible and rounded so that the child can move the fingers well inside the shoe.
- It is convenient that the part of the instep is made with soft skin to avoid that it does some chafing or wound in the foot.
- The sole must be non-slip and flexible. Hace - A few years ago, people tended to buy boots for the babies that were beginning to walk so that their feet and ankles were well secured. Today this theory is banished and precisely the experts indicate that
the height of the shoe must not exceed the ankle to allow the baby to move it. - The shoes should be light, that do not weigh too much to make it easier for the baby to take his first steps.
How to know the size of my baby's shoe?
As for the size of the shoe, ideally it should be 1.5 centimeters between the longest finger (the fat or the next) the baby and the shoe. As the foot in childhood grows quickly it is convenient that it should be loose, although it should never be a size larger than what you need because it would dance your foot inside.
It is advisable to check the size of the shoe from time to time and buy the next pair as soon as it is just, without taking time to avoid squeezing the shoe and causing some damage to the foot.
