Christmas Gifts for Toddler: Which Toddler Shoes to buy?

Toddler shoes are Christmas gifts for toddler you can give but need an extra time to decide which toddler shoes to buy. Toddlers grow so fast and it makes parents need to buy them a pair of new toddler shoes which fit properly. For the sake of their comfort and to maximize their development, you need to know the correct size before buying them a new pair of toddler shoes. Now the questions are how to find the best toddler shoes since you need to keep their feet in good shape. In order to do so, you need to measure your toddlers' feet and let them "test drive" shoes for a while before purchasing them. Below are some tips you might put in your mind to find the right toddler shoes for your loved ones:

First of all, you need to check that those toddler shoes are fit into your toddlers' feet. You can use a sizing chart and then find the corresponding one. Never buy a pair of toddler shoes which is too tight, of course, or too big. It will be uncomfortable and may cause falls. Be careful when you put their toes on the top of the shoes as a measurement guide since usually toddlers have a tendency to curl their toes and that makes unreliable measurement.

Another thing related to the right size is the right measurement of both feet. Usually one foot is larger than another. So, find toddler shoes with size according to the larger foot. Then ask your toddlers to try so that you know those toddler shoes have the correct width as well.

The last thing concerning about the size is you must leave space between their longest toe and the end of the shoes. Check their feet for red marks when you take off their shoes and socks. This is a good way to tell if the toddler shoes are too tight.

Next thing you need to do is find a pair of toddler shoes which is firmly attached, not only glued. Pay attention on the seams of outer and inner soles and decorations.

Then consider toddler shoes with simple model so that your toddlers can help themselves and you can save your time. Toddlers love doing a lot of things by themselves.

Most toddlers are active and they need a flexible pair of toddler shoes. Avoid choosing hard or thick-soled toddler shoes to make your toddlers safe and comfortable.

Toddler shoes with character may not be used forever. Last year your toddlers may love Cars, then Princess for this year, and we have not known yet for the next year. I suggest you to find a pair of unique toddler shoes so that it will be much easier to find when your toddlers take them off.

To make sure you have found the right toddler shoes, let your toddlers walk around the store for a while before purchasing new shoes. If your toddlers complain about the fit of the shoes or is walking funny, you should try on another pair to see if they seem more comfortable.
