I have to admit that learning to tie shoes is a lot harder than I remember. Well, maybe it has more to do with a challenge for my kid and my teaching skills. I don't know. But we have tried many different ways to teach her to tie her shoes and she still wasn't getting it.
I saw a video being passed around Facebook a month or so ago and bookmarked it so that I could go back later when I had time. And that day has come. I went into my daughter's room and told her the process as I did it for her. It only took one time trying it and Gabby was tying her shoes - in less than a minute. She was doing it and it wasn't taking FOREVER to do it either. I almost wished we had somewhere to go that day so that I could have said, "Come on Gabby, hurry and get your shoes on so we are not late." I love this small step that finally feels like progress.
I highly recommend teaching this to your children, it is so simple to learn.
We know how challenging it can be to teach kids new things, especially involving intricate finger maneuvers and tiny knots. We also know that not all children learn the same way or understand the same lessons best! But fear no longer! Here is another easy shoe-tying technique that will have your little ones mastering this task in less than a minute and give them that triumphant "I did it!" moment.
So quit stressing over teaching your kid to tie their shoes before school starts and watch our video on how to teach your child to tie their shoes in less than 60 seconds. Prepare to be amazed!

Did you catch that?
- Start with the standard starting knot.
- Loop the laces around your index fingers and thumbs in opposite directions on each side.
- Pinch the opposite lace and pull them through each other.
These are two GREAT ways to tie shoes easily and quickly! Practice together, and get ready for the "I-can-tie-my-own-shoes" victory dance.
Teaching your kids to tie their shoes is not just about practicality — it's a proud milestone that boosts their independence and confidence. Plus, their teacher will LOVE you.
Happy tying! 👟🎉
