The, why are there on the market so many shoes for babies below 1 year old? Well, the answer is money. Baby's apparels and garments are a growing business representing an important income for both manufacturers and suppliers, so it's not a surprise a market flooded with all kind of baby's apparels, many of them important and useful but with a growing number of useless or unnecessary items.

The key point here is that parents wish as most of possible for their babies and ever the best possible items, so they easily fall against advertisement pictures, videos of small babies' wearing shoes and all kind of publicitary stuff.

But the fact is that their babies don't need so many things, especially shoes when they are too small to walk; moreover, some models could be harmful for them, so on this regard, the simplest is the better.

On this regard, every baby car seat must have lateral support, cushioned head support and attaching devices designed to fix the chair frontwards or backwards depending of the baby's age.

Remember that the baby car seat must be placed always on the back seat of the car and have been attached with provided straps according to manufacturer's instructions. Failing on doing so may lead to fatal injuries in case of an accident because without proper fixation, the car seat remains useless.

Another important detail to keep in mind is the seat maximum carrying weight. There are car seats that can be used up to 10 pounds while there are some others able to deal up to 50 pounds. Be sure about the maximum allowed weight of your baby's car seat and use it until your baby achieves such weight, no further.

If you have more than one car, the most convenient is to have a chair for each one but if it's not possible, take your time to move the baby's car seat from one car to the other each time you need. Be sure to properly fix everything and check twice that everything is OK, remember that in case of an accident the car seat will make the difference between life or death.

It's also important to verify if the baby looks towards an auditory stimulus as well attention towards a colorful, interesting object.

During this exam is hard to know if the baby will need to use glasses, but this is not important yet. At this moment (babies beyond two years of life), the most important thing is to verify normal eyes development as well visual perception.

On the other hand the development of certain eyes tumors (i.e. retinoblastoma) which are commonly seen during childhood, must be ruled out.
