Kids’ feet are still growing and developing, meaning that choosing the right pair of shoes is perhaps even more important than shoe shopping for adults. Not only will the right pair of shoes help protect their delicate joints, ligaments and bones, certain shoes can help increase coordination and childhood reduce trips and falls. While many parents still opt for athletic shoes and sneakers as the first shoe of choice, new studies show that minimalist footwear might actually be better for the development of a child’s feet. Speak with your kids’ doctor before buying shoes to figure out what is best for your children.
