Why choose these gym bootees rather than letting the child go barefoot?
These gym bootees offer superior grip and better footing than going barefoot. Their technical features protect the foot whilst actively promoting the child’s balance and overall coordination.
Are these gym bootees recommended by healthcare professionals?
Yes, the design of this model has been scientifically validated by a psychomotor therapist. This medical approval is based on a clinical analysis of the children’s motor skills and gait as they navigate the baby gym circuits.
At what age and for which stage of development are these gym bootees suitable?
These gym bootees are designed for children aged 10 months to 4 years. This age group specifically targets the key stages of psychomotor development and the process of learning to walk during early childhood.
On what types of surfaces or floors should these gym bootees be worn?
These gym bootees are strictly for indoor use only, ideally on soft flooring or gymnastics mats. It is essential to avoid tarmac and outdoor use, as these would cause premature wear to their flexible structure.
Do they need to wear socks with these gym bootees?
No, it is recommended that you wear them without socks to ensure maximum sensory effectiveness. Direct contact allows the nerve receptors in the arch of the foot to pick up information from the ground, which is essential for a child’s proprioception and balance.
