Squeaky shoes are shoes specially designed for pre-walkers, toddlers and young children, as they support and reinforce the development of young feet with lightweight, flexible and soft soles. They have an easy flex sole, which enables the young foot to bend and flex, they are soft to eliminate rubbing, and they also have a non-slip sole which gives a pre-walker confidence.
Squeaky shoes make a squeaking sound when pressure is placed on the heel, which is used to encourage baby's first steps. They provide motivation and encouragement for crawlers to start waking. And for the older children and toddlers it provides heaps of fun and entertainment.
Squeaky shoes also offers parents some peace of mind, as you can hear where your child is at all times, great for when you go out to parks, shopping centres or any overcrowded places. Also one for the parents it is good to know the squeaker can be removed by simply removing the plastic valve at the heel of the shoe. (Good to know if you would like some quiet time) Hold onto the squeaker as it can be put back in at any time for the squeaker sound to begin again, but please note if you are removing the squeaker please keep it out of reach from children as it is a choking hazard.
When purchasing shoes for young children the expert guide lines are:
- Shoes should have flexible and non-slip soles to provide flexability for the foot and traction.
- Should be made from a breathable material
- Have Velcro closures as they are safer and easier than laces and buckles.
- Have a ½ inch wriggle room between toes and end of shoe, so they don't restrict toe mobility.
