What kind of slippers should children wear in school and kindergarten?

Choosing the right slippers for children is very important, as they spend a lot of time wearing them. Here are some tips on what kind of slippers children should wear in school and kindergarten:

• Comfort: Slippers should be comfortable and fit the child's foot properly. There should be enough space for toe movement, and the foot should not feel squeezed or too tight.

• Support and Cushioning: Children are active throughout the day, so slippers should provide good cushioning and foot support. This is especially important for younger children, whose feet are still growing and developing.

• Suitability for Various Activities: Since children participate in different activities at school and kindergarten, their slippers should be suitable for various movements and provide a good grip on different surfaces. Rubber should be placed in areas where the child needs it most (front and back).

• Materials: Slippers should be made from high-quality materials that allow breathability and prevent unpleasant odors. Leather slippers are the best choice for this reason.

• Ease of Putting On and Taking Off: For younger children in kindergarten who are still learning to put on shoes independently, it is good to choose slippers that they can easily put on and take off. Our BabySoft slippers with Velcro fastening are an excellent choice.

• Checking School Rules: Every school may have its own footwear rules, so make sure the slippers comply with school guidelines. This is especially relevant for older children who prefer leather slip-ons. :)

• Size: Regularly check your child's slipper size, as their feet grow quickly. If slippers are too small, they can cause discomfort and hinder foot development. You can read how to measure foot size in this article. The sizes apply to our school slippers and BabySoft collection.
