Walking and third law of motion

I realised one fine day that apart from trampoline and rockets there is an example of Newton's third law of motion that I missed all my life!

When we want to move forward, we push our foot backward, and earth as a reaction pushes our foot forward!

Same happens when we want to move backward, we push our foot forward!

Now I understand why children take so much time to learn to walk! :)
