Hi everyone, do you all babysit kindergarteners or younger kids who don't know how to tie their shoes. Well here's a quick and easy way to teach them how to tie them. This would be very beneficial for you because you get to help kids learn how to do this very easy life skill. This is also beneficial for the kids because they are learning something new that they can learn to do independently. All you have to do for this is get shoes, tie them the way I'm going to teach, and you are all done.

Supplies

All you will need is a pair of shoes with shoestrings, and a young child who is learning how to tie their shoes.

Get Some Shoes

Tenth step, since this is for a young kid you may want to repeat this whole process again to form another more secure knot.

TA DA!

Now you have successfully tied your shoes, now go have fun.

Closing

This is the perfect and easiest way to learn and teach others how to tie their shoes. This will benefit you, the kid, and even parents because they won't need to continue to tie so many shoes when going out if they have multiple children. I hope this was very easy and the little one knows how to finally tie their own shoes. If you have any questions and need clarifying leave it down below.
