The makers of Squatchi–the big footsizer that measures little feet–knows that for every pair of feet being measured for new shoes, there are a thousand others across the world who’ve never had a pair of shoes. Ever. Without shoes, kids can’t walk (the sometimes) several miles of tough terrain to attend their local schools. This means these kids don’t go to school. Which is why for the past two years Squatchi has donated to Soles4Souls, a global not-for-profit institution dedicated to fighting the devastating impact and perpetuation of poverty through the distribution of shoes and clothing. One pair of shoes for these children can be life changing. Squatchi has made it easier for volunteers to get accurate measurements of these children’s feet in a non-threatening way. Measuring with paper was not nearly as accurate or fun! Flexible and colorful, Squatchi is helping to change children’s lives one shoe measurement at a time, because everyone’s life deserves to be a little easier.
Squatchi was created by moms for moms to help solve one life’s little struggles—shoe shopping with a wriggling, crying, cranky toddler! Squatchi allows parents to measure their child’s feet at home creating a fun, bonding activity for parent and child. No more hectic trips to the mall, dragging your reluctant child to the shoe store only to leave frustrated when they don’t want to sit still or put their foot in that scary metal contraption. Or worse, shopping on your own, guessing what size they wear which means several trips back and forth to the mall, or returning online purchases and re-buying until you get the right size. Squatchi lets you measure at home when they’re ready. Simply place their foot in Squatchi’s smooth surface and place the heel all the way back in the curved heel rest. Then make a permanent line where their big toe rests (don’t forget to measure both feet as sometimes one is larger than the other!). You now have your child’s exact shoe size measurement! Time and sanity saved! Squatchi is soft, flexible and comes in a variety of bright colors. Kids will love to see how much their foot has grown since last time they were measured and you’ll love that you have a treasured keepsake, a growth chart of their foot!
Squatchi- one little product that’s making a big difference!
In addition to Soles4Souls, Squatchi has donated to CatiesCloset.org which provides shoes to poverty stricken kids in the Northeast as well as Millions From One and the AIDS Orphan Education Trust.
