Footwear advice for infants promotes free foot development
Complete freedom of motion is essential for normal foot development in infancy. Because of its softness the baby's foot may be readily deformed by pressure. Various foot coverings even sleeping garments with feet in them often place too much pressure on the baby's foot. In warm weather no foot covering is necessary. Otherwise a pair of light socks.
Fixing Condensation Between Window Panes
Home economists from the University of Wisconsin advise three fixes for moisture between a storm window and an inner pane. Apply weather stripping to the inner windows, loosen the storm window, or reduce house humidity by venting moisture sources like the kitchen.
