Description
Learning to tie shoelaces can be tricky for young children — meet the Springtime Wooden Learn to Tie Shoelace! This fun, hands-on toy helps little ones practice tying their shoes in a way that’s easy to understand and enjoy.
Start by helping your child undo a simple knot, then work your way up to unthreading the laces and threading them back through the holes. As they get used to how the laces feel and move, they’ll build the confidence and coordination needed to try simple tying techniques like loops, bunny ears, twists, and knots. Take your time — practicing when you’re not rushed (like after school) can make a big difference!
Experts say most kids begin learning to tie shoelaces between ages 5 to 7. This process takes strong fine motor skills, hand strength, and coordination — even though many kids at this age don’t fully understand left from right. This learning shoe is a great way to help them build these skills step by step. The Springtime Wooden Learn to Tie Shoelace has two sides — one with a bright springtime bee and flower design, and the other a plain white surface for focused practice. It comes with bright red laces and is available in left or right-foot options (chosen at random).
Made from FSC-certified wood and finished with non-toxic, child-safe paints, this lacing shoe toy is safe, sturdy, and eco-friendly. It’s a great tool for home, classrooms, or early learning centres — helping kids develop essential life skills while having fun.
