Taking care of children's health, each parent strives to choose the best for their child, and approaches the choice of shoes with special responsibility. In the process of this choice, a lot of questions always arise, and the most popular of them: what shoe model is ideal for children?

Popular styles and models
At the moment, the children's shoe market offers consumers the following models of summer shoes for girls:
- With closed heel and toe. Such styles hold the child's foot well in the desired position and perfectly protect its maximum sections from mechanical damage. Such a model is shown to children who have just learned to walk and are distinguished by a noticeable unsteadiness of their gait. It is noticeable that only those shoes from this category are the best, which have a fairly rigid heel and soft toe.
With open toe and closed heel. This shoe model is not chosen as often as the previous one due to its external characteristics, but it still has a noticeable popularity. A closed heel, provided that it will be fixed on the foot, holds the leg well in the desired position, but it is worth considering that the heel in such shoes should not be too high.It is better to choose such sandals for girls when they have already reached kindergarten age.
With open heel and toe. This is what classic sandals look like - the most favorite summer type of footwear for girls of preschool and school age. Such a model not only takes into account all the anatomical features of the children's foot, but also looks quite feminine, and this is what attracts girls, who, due to age, are already beginning to form the first inclinations of taste.
And although the range of children's shoes is now quite extensive, you should choose the right model only taking into account the developmental characteristics of the child's musculoskeletal system. Before going to the store, you should definitely contact an orthopedist, and he will already advise which style of shoes is better to pay attention to.
Criterias of choice
But even knowing which shoe model is recommended for your child, you should not relax, because there are still a lot of selection criteria:
- Manufacturing material. It is important that the outer lining (including the insole) is made of canvas, which perfectly absorbs moisture and at the same time has breathable properties. And as you know, natural leather and textiles have just such characteristics. Regarding the exterior finish, it is worth saying that it must be wear-resistant, which means it can be made of leatherette or fabric.
Sole. The most important design detail of shoes, whether sandals or sandals for girls. Here it is important to build on the “golden mean” rule, since the ideal sole should be moderately hard to keep the foot in the correct position, but at the same time soft enough not to cause discomfort when walking.
- Arch support. And this element, despite the general opinion, is not always necessary.No, if a child has problems with the formation of the foot, it is really very necessary, but this does not apply to children with healthy feet. And in general, you should choose such shoes only as directed by a doctor.
For girls, the external features of sandals and sandals play an important role.
From the earliest preschool age, they are already eyeing fashion trends, striving for individuality. They give the greatest preference to shoes in orange, pink, green, red and yellow, as well as those that are decorated with various decorative elements.
