'Normal Heel-Toe Gait

As you can see here, a normal gait is called a heel-toe gait and that means that as one leg swings forward, it lands with the heel on the ground first. Then the body proceeds over that stance phase limb and finally the foot raises up on tip-toe right before it swings forward again. As you can see, when the leg is on tip-toe, the other leg is on heel strike so in normal gait there is never a time when a child should be on tippy-toes bilaterally. '
