Teen Socks

1. They Help Regulate Body Temperature
According to the Stanford Children’s Health doctors, babies have a more challenging time regulating their body temperature than adults do. Low birth weight or premature babies will find it even more difficult to stay warm because they have less body fat. You know you can keep baby cosy with winter clothing, fleece pants and jackets. Layering accessories such as cotton socks will also help to keep them warm, happy and healthy.

While you may prefer crew socks or ankle socks for your baby, you may decide to go with longer, thicker socks in the winter. If your child’s pants hike up during car rides, sleep or play, the extra layer will help to keep their legs warm. Pair them with mittens so you can warm their hands, all while protecting their face from nail injuries.

2. They Protect Feet from Injury
After a few months, your newborn will begin to hit baby milestones, such as resting on their tummy, rolling and crawling. Some babies will even start to walk before their first year is done. No matter how your little one is getting around, their feet can come into contact with all kinds of unstable surfaces and objects.

Your child will inevitably step on a toy, walk on rougher surfaces or venture a few feet outside. No-skid socks will keep their toes and soles warm and padded from danger. Add an extra layer of comfort and security with a pair of booties. Most infant booties also come with no-skid bottoms, so your child doesn’t slip when they’re cruising.

3. They Keep Toes Warm Outdoors
If your baby doesn’t walk yet, they don’t need hard-soled shoes to get around. Along with a Onesie and a pair of pants, socks with booties are all you need to stroll in the park, visit the store or have a bite to eat in your favourite restaurant. While you may be able to skip socks during summer, they’re an essential layer during most months of the year. This is especially true during winter, when thick socks can prevent hypothermia and illness.
