At what age should Orthopedic PlayMats be used?
The most foot massage mats can be used when you baby starts first attempts in walking. Generally it happens around 1 year old. Some mats are better to be used after 2 years old, each set has a recommended age of use in their description. We recommend to start from the set Baby as it includes only soft tiles that will be perfect for “the first time walkers”. Also it's important to know that kid's feet are developing all the way till 6 years old, that's why it is important to engage in the prevention of flat feet with the child. Your child should walk barefoot on uneven surfaces (sand, grass, pebbles, massage mats, etc.); performing exercises to strengthen the muscles of the lower leg and feet - walking on toes, on heels, on the outer edge of the foot, rolling of the feet, gripping small objects with the toes, etc.
