On our routine visits to Kenya, one of the ongoing needs is shoes! According to the Institute for Preventive Foot Health, in the first five years of life, a child’s feet grow rapidly. One study found the following growth characteristics of feet in children from ages one to five:
- Under 15 months: a child’s footwear increased by 1/2 size about every two months;
- From 15 months to two years: 1/2 size increase occurred every two to three months;
- From two to three years: a 1/2 size increase occurred every three to four months;
- From three to five years: a 1/2 size increase occurred every four months;
- Boys' feet tended to average one size longer and one size wider than those of girls. Width growth remained proportional to length growth throughout the study.
