How To Tie Your Shoelaces
Tie Your Shoelaces. A quick and easy-to-follow guide to tying your shoelaces with two variations: one that's easier for kids!
Step 1: You will need
- 1 pair of shoes with laces
- 1 pair of hands
Step 2: Make the tying knot
Lay one lace over the top of the shoe and cross the other over it. Tuck the top lace under, and around the bottom one and pull both laces firmly at the ends to secure the tying knot.
