Leading Pediatricians and Podiatrists recommend PlatyPaws
Important pediatric studies conclude that children shouldwalk bare-foot in order to allow their feet to developnaturally. When weather and conditions make bare-foot walking impractical, PlayPaws are the next best choice. PlatyPaws allow children to feel and grip the walking surface as nature intended for muscle development, while reducing falls common in stiff heavy shoes.
If your child had a choice, that choice would be PlatyPaws - “the soft-soled shoe”.
Children love wearing these shoes, because they allow them to walk and crawl without feeling constrained.
It is always a good idea to order the shoes ½" larger than the foot in order to have room for the feet to grow.

How do I determine what size to order?
The best way to determine the size of shoe to order is to first measure the size of the child's foot. We the best way to do that is to place a piece of blank paper on the floor (preferably a hard surface, like tiles or hardwood). If possible, have your child stand on the paper. Put a pencil mark at the heel and one at the longest toe. Using a standard ruler, measure the distance between the two marks.
One caution - if you plan on putting socks on your child when they wear the shoes, it is best to measure their foot in socks. If you do not, you will need to take into account a little bit of extra room in order to accommodate the material in the socks.
The approximate ages noted above are a guide only. It is best to measure your child's foot to determine the size.

How to care for a Down Pillow and Comforter
We suggest that you protect your comforter from soil and wear with a Comforter or Duvet cover. A Down Comforter and Pillow should be aired as often as possible, leave the Comforter and Pillow outside in a shaded area on a sunny day, so that moisture in the down has a chance to evaporate. Shake you Comforter and Pillow daily to help the down stay fluffy. Small spots can be washed with a wet rag.
In case it's necessary you wash your comforter and pillow. Choose a frontloading washing machine with a large capacity. Wash in warm water at delicate.
