Hi again,
I agree that socks are restrictive, especially to young children, so I don't get how some parents put socks on them. They need freedom of the toes to touch at things, grab for them ... and learn to balance as they crawl, sit and later learn to walk.
When I had my first child 14 years ago some relatives gave us a footed onesie and first thing I did was to cut off the feet and sew nice hems instead so his feet would peek out bare and free. At home our children never wore anything on their feet, and as they learned to walk we also allowed them to go barefoot everywhere they liked, since none of them had any difficulties walking even on rough ground we found it's the best for them all!
Hanging upside down sounds lovely! And speaking of a happy heart, did you ever notice when a child has black feet and holds them together the pale arches form a cute little heart shape?
We gave our children nice, practical and comfortable things to wear, but when it's not freezing their feet are bare and free like their hands, and now that it warms up they're all happily in shorts.
