Time for Baby’s First Shoes
Those tiny Mary Janes and sneakers are adorable, but are they necessary yet? Here we help you understand when to buy and what to look for when shopping around for your baby’s first shoes.
Many parents and gift givers ask: “When to buy shoes?†Well, babies younger than 9 months don’t need them at all. Keep those little feet barefoot or in nonskid socks until your baby starts pulling up and cruising at mach 3.
Another popular question is: “Where to wear them?†Your baby doesn’t need shoes indoors — in fact, bare feet grip the floor better and help him learn to walk faster. Outside, of course, they help protect his feet. Also you probably want to look for flexible, nonskid soles which are essential, whereas ankle or arch supports aren’t yet.
