Teaching a Child How to Put Socks On

Teaching a Child How to Put Socks On
• Show socks to a child and demonstrate each step. For example, “First we get our socks.”
• Point out the colored heel of the sock, and then touch the heel of your child’s foot. Say, “See? This heel of the sock will go on your heel.”
• Have your child scrunch up the sock and put it on their toes. Next, have them pull the sock up toward their ankle.
• If necessary, have them adjust the sock so that the heel and foot are in the right place.
