Does it feel like your child grows out of their shoes almost as soon as they are in them? Until the age of three, your child’s foot will grow around 2mm a month, that’s two sizes per year on average in the first 3-4 years of life.
So it’s pretty important that you measure your child’s feet regularly in those early years, organisations like Clarks recommend every 6-8 weeks until they are around 4 years of age.
Take a look at our guide to measuring and checking at home, this was created from the resources found on the website - check this out for lots more brilliant information and measuring advice.
