Did You Know?

These easy baby booties are the perfect DIY gift for anyone in your life that is
expecting a little bundle of joy. Tiny baby toes need to be kept warm! Booties are
an ideal footwear for babies in the first year of life because their feet grow so
quickly. Feet grow the quickest during the first three years of life, so enjoy the
time that they aren't yet walking when you can get away with thick socks and
booties to cover your baby's toes!

When babies start learning to walk, they actually flex their feet upwards of 25,000
times day. They should be wearing shoes that mimic bare feet during this time (like
non-slip booties) to help their muscles develop correctly. Children's feet take
about three times the stress as adult feet, so once they've learned to walk
properly, a well-supported shoe is recommended. Since they are growing so quickly,
it's also recommended that their feet get resized for shoes every three months.
