THE SHOE TIEER

Lainey's new school shoes are laced.  These are her first big shoes she's had, that have to be tied.

So she learned.  Just after a couple of times, she had it down.

First: Start with shoes on your feet.
That is a very important step. You shouldn't tie shoes off of you feet and then try to put them on. That doesn't work very well.
Second: Tie a single knot.

Third:  Make a loop (bunny ear) with one of the laces.

Fouth: Wrap the other lace around bunny ear. 


Lastly: Pull that lace through the hole and pull both loops.

All done.
There you have two tied shoes and one happy girl.
Now she's really ready for kindergarden.
