One Stop Shop For Kids - Shoes

Doctors will tell you that new walkers should not wear shoes. Feet develop best when they are bare because it helps shape and strengthen arches and ankles. Once your toddler has been walking around for a few months and is comfortable with that new milestone you can move on to big boy or big girl shoes but in the mean time look for the following

Flexible and soft soles- this helps the child walk almost as if they were barefoot.

Low cut- no high tops or hiking boots just yet. This is hard on their developing ankles.

Nonskid bottoms-Babies have a hard time keeping their balance and they tend to try and run before they walk so make sure the bottoms are safe and nonslip.

Good Size- Do not buy the shoes too big because it will cause the baby to fall but their feet grow so quickly if they are small shoes to start they will wear them once or twice.

When your baby is in the infant stage just laying around or sitting up please keep them in socks and booties. They come in great sets which are also provided below.
