Why are kids so heavy on their feet?

715 viewsOther

You can clearly tell when my eight year old is walking through the house. He sounds like the cliche: a herd of elephants. He’s not the only one I’ve noticed either. When my sister was his age she walked heavily. Why are kids so heavy?

What’s up with that?

Personally I remember that when I was a little kid, I used to run and walk on my heels. Which is very, very loud, especially on hard floors.

As I grew older though, I became more self-conscious about the noise I make, and try to step more softly. Also, I learned from PE teachers that it was better to run on the front of your sole to get a spring in your step.
