12 Days of Shoe-Tying Practice chart “I Tied My Shoes!” certificateWhy it works (when nothing else did)
1
Your child ties the first knot.
2
Training Ties holds it in place. No collapse, no starting over.
3
They finish the loop and tie it for real, on their own shoes.
“After 20+ years teaching special education and adapted PE, I knew the problem wasn’t effort. Kids got close, the loop collapsed, and they had to start over. I built Training Ties so the progress stays put. Watching a kid tie their own shoes for the first time never gets old.”
— Bobby Morong, inventor of Training Ties®
