Where have your feet taken you? Draw a picture of a favorite place your feet have taken you.

Do your feet ever get sweaty? And stinky?

Bacteria are the reason. They eat the dead skin cells on your feet. After eating the dead skin cells on your feet, the bacteria have to get rid of their waste. It’s the bacteria’s waste that smells bad. Yuck! When these bacteria are in dark, damp places, like the insides of shoes, they start to multiply, eat more, and stink more! Socks help to keep feet a bit drier and can help keep the stink down.

When you take a step, your weight falls first on your heel. Then your weight moves to the outside edge of your foot. Then it moves to the ball of the foot. Finally your weight moves to the big toe, which gives you a push forward.
