Importance of Good School Shoes

Jul 14, 2021

The benefits of treating the kids to new school shoes don't just stop at comfort.

There are many psychological benefits to a pair of new shoes that help them to achieve their very best!

 

Fewer Trips & Slips

A pair of well-fitting shoes can be the difference between scuffed knees and running around the playground easily with friends.

They'll be able to say yes to participating in schoolyard fun without the worry that they will trip over.

 

 

Boost in Self Confidence

Kids don't want to be different, even though it's not a bad thing! Buying them good school shoes helps them fit in and makes kids feel that they are worth it.   

This then flows into their self-confidence, ability to interact with other kids and take on their schoolwork.

 

Comfort For Better Focus

Help their learning out by removing sore feet from the equation. Shoes made for comfort ensure that sore feet don't get in the way of kids focussing on what's important - learning!

You know how distracting sore feet and blisters can be to your day, it's the same for children. Only they don't yet have the discipline to get through it.

 

Here's A Confidence Builder To Try At Home!

If their school have laces, why not help boost their confidence by teaching them how to tie their laces!  

Knowing that they don't need to rely on anyone else to fix their shoelaces can be a huge confidence booster but also engages and fine-tunes their motor skills ready to take on the world.
