[quote=Anonymous]My DCs learned at 5 because their Kindergarten required tie shoes as part of the uniform, and they expected the children to be able to tie them. I know this is uncommon, because on the soccer field the refs were regularly stopping play for untied shoes, and then refs and coaches would run to tie the shoes that needed tying. Between 9-11 it shifted from "most kids can't tie shoes" to "most kids can tie shoes" at least for the field sports my children participated in. I didn't really notice any difference between girls and boys ability to tie. It just seems to be a skill that's shifted later as velcro has become common for a shoe fastener.[/quote]
