Abstract
Normal development is not an exact science. Children progress in a variety of ways without falling outside the normal range. This applies to the shape of their legs and feet, as well as the onset and development of their gait pattern. Deviation from parents' expectations may lead to considerable anxiety and medical consultation. It is essential to identify the important pathological diagnoses amongst the array of normal variants to facilitate early intervention and optimise outcomes.
