[quote=Anonymous]It took my youngest DS a very long time to learn to tie. He's now 8 and still doesn't do a good job but he can do it. He still can't tie his own shoes because of some flexibility/stretching issues but we're working on that separately. What helps is that we set up a schedule for him to practice. After he got the basics down, we had him practice twice a day - not a lot, just enough to start building competency and memory. He didn't complain much because it really wasn't burdensome. We had him practice on my DH's boots because the laces were longer.[/quote]
