[quote=Anonymous]You left him in velcro or were doing it for him for too long OP. My DS is 11 and has significant fine motor challenges (has always tested years and years below his age). When he was 7 his new year’s resolution was to learn to tie his shoes. So I taught him (using the bunny method) and just gritted my teeth and let him take all the time he needed. He doesn’t tie them very tight still now, but he can do it. If my kid who the OT told me had the motor skills of a 18 month old when he was 4 can do it, so can your kid. [/quote]
