Although babies often pull socks regardless of the situation and make parents headaches, this behavior is actually a proud growth milestone. Taking off socks is a manifestation of self-care. Self-care (independence) is one of the important parts of children’s personality and social adaptability. It will develop rapidly around one year old. At this time, the socks that are easiest to pull off become the baby’s goal of showing abilities.
Especially when the baby sees his mother or grandmother “frustrated” over and over again to help him put it on, this may be a game for him.
Of course, it is not ruled out that the socks for the baby are too tight, too stuffy, too hot, the baby’s feet are sweaty, itchy, and even the blood does not circulate. When I was a baby, I couldn’t resist. Now I have the ability. Of course I choose barefoot and comfortable.
Children walking barefoot can improve their intelligence and brain
Medical research has shown that children who often exercise barefoot can stimulate and excite the nerve ending receptors densely distributed on the soles of the feet. Through the feedback of the central nervous system, they can regulate the functions of organs including the brain, thereby improving the sensitivity of brain thinking and memory. This way children will be smarter.
Baby barefoot has a strong metabolism
The child’s bare feet are conducive to the evaporation of foot sweat. At the same time, walking barefoot can massage the acupuncture points of the feet, and the blood circulation of the feet will accelerate, which will promote the blood circulation and metabolism of the whole body, and enhance the regulation of autonomic nerves and endocrine. Function to improve the body’s disease resistance and cold tolerance.
Develop a better walking posture with bare feet
Barefoot can better perceive changes in ground height and adjust the pace in time. And if children walk in shoes during toddlers, these feelings will be blocked. They need to look down at the ground to judge changes in the ground. Over time, they will easily develop the habit of walking with their heads down.
Upon hearing this, the mothers waved their hands and said no, saying that cold was born from the soles of their feet. If it’s summer, it’s so cold, if you catch a cold, your baby will suffer too.
Okay, let’s teach you how to deal with the baby’s actual situation.
1. A playful baby, the baby is playing with socks
As the baby grows up, he will become interested in everything around him. He likes to grab, shoot, and pull with his hands. Give him a toy and he can play for a long time. Socks are unremarkable for adults, but they are super fun toys for babies. The socks will be pulled long when they are pulled, and then they can be pulled apart from the feet. This action baby It was fun, so the baby fell in love with pulling socks.
solution:
If the baby takes off the socks, the baby’s mother immediately puts on the baby, the baby will feel more fun, as if the mother is playing games with him. Therefore, when the baby is always pulling on the socks, you might as well give your baby a toy to divert his attention, and then put the baby on the socks.
2. The baby wants to be barefoot
When learning to walk, babies will be curious about new things under their feet and want to step on them to try. When he unintentionally took off his socks, walking around with bare feet on the ground was a novel experience for the baby. Therefore, babies like to tugging socks whenever they have a chance.
solution:
In autumn and winter, the ground is cooler regardless of the material, and it is easy for babies to catch cold when they are barefoot. Therefore, a crawling mat can be laid to prevent the baby’s feet from catching cold.
3. Socks are uncomfortable to wear
Another very important reason is that the baby feels uncomfortable. In summer, the baby has bare feet, and the little feet are always in an unfettered state. Suddenly putting on small socks on the baby will make him feel tight and restrained.
And many mothers like to buy socks with complex and beautiful designs for their babies, which are really cute to wear. However, the more complicated the patterns, the more threads there will be in the socks, and the babies will feel that their feet are trapped, and the toes will be hooked dangerously.
solution:
It is recommended that when buying socks for the baby, mothers should focus on comfort, choose all-cotton materials, and do not have threads in the socks, so that the baby is more comfortable to wear and will not pull the socks often.
4. The baby tries to attract more attention from people around him
When adults are busy, they always like to put the baby alone on the bed or chair, so that the baby feels particularly bored, and he will use the things around him to get the attention of the adults. In winter, pulling socks is a good way to show. He knows that his mother will come after pulling the socks, so he seeks his mother’s attention in this way.
solution:
Little babies will be afraid of crying if they can’t see their mother for a moment. Therefore, mothers should accompany the baby more. Even if they can’t always hold the baby, keep themselves in the baby’s sight and let the baby sit in a chair and play with toys. This way the baby can see the mother and won’t cry.
The baby is in the growth and development period, and the metabolism itself is stronger than that of the adult. In addition, the child is active and active, sweating a lot, especially a child who has a lot of activity. For example, if he has been learning to walk, if he is always forced to wear socks, his feet sweat a lot but are stuffed in shoes and socks. Uncomfortable, it may breed bacteria and cause infection.
However, things are always divided into two sides.
Although barefoot has certain benefits for your baby, it is necessary to distinguish between the situation and the specific occasion. The baby still needs socks to protect it under cold outdoor weather or special circumstances.
In many cases, it is the subjective judgment made by the mother that affects the child’s clothes. In fact, the best way to judge whether the child is hot or cold is to touch the back of the child’s neck. If the mother feels that the child’s stamina is particularly cold, then It means that the baby’s body is relatively cold, so you need to put on socks for the baby to protect the baby’s body.
New mothers must decide whether or not the baby should wear socks based on the actual situation of their baby.
