>Hi, Sally! I knew before my girl was born that it's >healthy to let them grow up barefoot and part of a >wonderful childhood with plenty of sensual >experiences. So I didn't put anything on her feet as a >baby and she made it clear from the beginning she >didn't want anything on her feet, often using them as >another pair of hands. When she learned to walk I >noticed how she uses her toes as fingers to grip the >ground and steady herself. I then got the idea of >going out barefoot with her as it was spring, I walked >barefoot myself to feel the same and I watched out >that she doesn't get hurt. Her feet were baby-soft at >the time but she managed to walk on all surfaces with >no difficulty. I took her everywhere she liked and >watched with fascination as her entire soles got black >in town. >A few months later they got tougher, still smooth, and >now she's in the process of forming arches as I can >already see after a walk in town, now the blackened >balls and heels are more clearly separated from each >other. Like your kids, no cracks, all perfectly >smooth, a child's skin is so wonderfully adaptable. >Recently as we went shopping for clothes she told me >she wants to go barefoot all winter. Now we can get >some frost and snow and I'm well aware of the risk of >frostbite at freezing temperatures so we'll be very >cautious about that. But it makes me smile she knows >what's good for her!
