I found an interesting shoelace illustration on the web today:
Tying An Ian Knot
You can also see a "flip-book" alternative at Ian Knot Flip-Book.
A few of our Kindergarten friends can tie shoes. Although shoe-tying is not required at this point in the year, I am thankful to our friends who are able to make a head-start on their shoelaces. I have attempted to tie certain shoes in double and triple knots, but these laces are defiant :-)! I'll practice the Ian Knot over the weekend!
