Flat Feet, Chubby Feet, Growing Feet: What’s Normal at Age 2–4?

Flat feet, chubby feet, and fast-growing toes are all common during the toddler years. Between ages two and four, children’s feet are still forming, which means arches may not be visible and feet can look wider or softer than expected.

Behind the Design: How We Created WonderSkips With EVA

When we started Simples, we asked a question every parent knows too well: why are toddler shoes either too stiff, too fiddly, or simply not built for the way kids actually move? That question led to WonderSkips — our first shoe, designed from the ground up with little feet (and tired parents) in mind. After testing countless materials, we chose pure EVA for its softness, flexibility, lightweight feel, and everyday durability. This is the story behind that decision, and how EVA became the foundation of WonderSkips.

Why We Chose Pure EVA for WonderSkips: Safety, Comfort, Simplicity

We explored other materials, including eco-foam blends, but they didn’t meet our standard for traction and comfort during testing. For WonderSkips, we chose EVA because we knew it would deliver the safety, durability, and simplicity parents need right now.
