Teach your kid to tie shoelaces!

3 to 5 years

Most children are taught to tie their shoelaces between the ages of three and five years old. It's necessary to help your kid become more independent and self-confident.

We offer you to make a special shoe model to give the possibility to train without hurry, which usually occurs before leaving home with kids.

Take an old pair of shoes with laces and a piece of cardboard.

Draw around the shoes' soles with a marker.

Then make a detailed picture of the shoes. Don't forget about the holes for laces!

Buy bright and funny laces and show your kid how to tie them. Soft, wide (but not too fat) laces are ideal. Be ready to repeat it many times!

Some kids understand how to tie laces only after coloring the laces' halves with different colors. To make this, buy white laces and color the right half with red color and the left one - with blue.

Make a photo of your kid tying shoelaces and upload to the App. How long did it take your kid to master the skill?
