Things to think about when knee walking
When you are encouraging your baby to walk on their knees be mindful of the types of clothes they are wearing and the flooring they are on. Walking on knees can become painful if their knees are bare, especially if your baby is knee walking on a carpet or a hard outdoor surface. Not all babies walk on their knees so do not worry if they miss this stage.
