What shoes should chidren wear? Choosing the right shoes for children is important to support their growing feet and development 👣 Proper footwear helps prevent discomfort, promotes healthy foot development, and reduces the risk of injury as they play and explore 🌳 There are 3 key things to look for when buying shoes for your child: ✅ Check the heel for support— it shouldn't collapse when pressed ✅ Ensure the front of the shoe is wider than the heel to match natural foot structure ✅ Test flexibility— it should bend at the toe but not fold completely in half The good news is that you don't need to splurge on expensive brands! 💸 Check out places like Kmart, Big W, or Target for affordable options that meet these criteria. If you have any concerns about your child's feet development, Paediatric Physiotherapists can help in many ways 🤗 Happy shoe shopping! 👟
