[quote=Anonymous]Is your child in OT? My son had finger weakness and struggled. When he was young we did those curly laces but at some point he really was very motivated to tie like his friends. The OT worked on this with him. I also often replaced the laces that came with the shoes as some laces stayed tied better. At the start I let him tie them and then I followed up and double knotted them. Eventually he was able to tie them tight enough and/or double knot around late 5th grade. [/quote]
