We went to the Maternal Nurse for Yong Shuan's 12th month assessment on Wednesday. The nurse took all the measurement and test Yong Shuan on his gross motor, vision, fine motor, speech, hearing, social behaviour & play development, she confirmed most skills that should be there is present.
She passed to me the 12th month notes for parents, it was written in the note that recommended parents to let your baby bare feet as long as possible is for the best of your babies. Of course I have to protect him from injury, cold and heat. The nurse has asked me to let Yong Shuan walks, runs, jumping, climbing with bare feet. However Chinese do practice to wear shoes (normally is was a gift from grandma on his first birthday) after the baby turned one. Mmmm.. :)
As the first time mummy, I can't stop myself from staring at the babies shoes display when ever I go shopping. These days merchandisers are too clever to tackle the shopper with all the designs.
We will try to let Yong Shuan practice to push off his bare toes as often as we can especially when we are indoor or even on the grass (which we got to wait until SPring /Summer comes) .
