Hi Mysmile
You can apply jhonson baby cream on the knees it will get softened as she was crawling the skin is in direct contact with the dust so some kids face this problem as you have mentioned that she has started walking now it will get reduced but apply some cold cream to the kneee and even at night before putting her to bed you can apply it, will go away in a few days.

rubbing a piece of cucumber helps,and also with sore curds gives the gd results.

raw/unrefined african shea butter is perfect for dry skin. It is high in vitamin A which is what evens skin tone from the inside out. It may be a bit heavy which is why you do not need to use so much, to make it light and fluffy blend it with pure aloe vera gel and then apply it to your daughters skin.

make sure if you purchase shea butter that it is raw/unrefined and yellow.

rubbing the knees with lemon works for sure!! but be certain that she doesn't have any scratches or cuts on her knees, because applying the lemon will make it burn if she has cuts.

clean knees thorougly with a gentle baby wash and apply good quality moisturiser. when crawling put on pants so that skin is not irritated due to the friction. reapply moisturiser during the day and at nighttime too.
