Summarize this article:

Establishing routines positively affects your child in a myriad of ways. Children like the familiarity and it builds trust and a feeling of safety. It also gives little ones the opportunity to learn to start processes on their own, which builds self-confidence and self-esteem while also reducing the time needed to put shoes on your one year old if you are ever in a hurry to get out the door. If you keep shoes near the door, for instance, your child will know that upon approaching the door it is time to sit on the steps (or floor) for "shoe time." You can even explain why we need shoes as you put the shoes on you toddler. You can repeat a mantra, such as: first we put on the socks, then we put on the shoes, then we go play and have fun! Some children prefer to sit or stand while their shoes are put on while others prefer to be held. Depending on the preferences of your child, you should select a position that is both convenient for you and comfortable for your little one. If you prefer to hold your child, sit with your child facing away from you on your lap. Being so near the door may be too exciting for your toddler to sit still. If that is the case, try another neutral area that doesn't contain their toys or other highly desired items that can cause angst. This can eliminate the headache of a toddler on the loose. The child is already strapped in. As a routine it also helps positively build your child's emotional well-being while bringing you closer together. It can also be easier because your toddler will learn that to get out and having shoes on is a necessary first step.
Create an unremarkable routine. Experiment and find out how your child likes to put their shoes on. Consider the location where you put the shoes on. Put on shoes when your toddler is in the stroller or car.
