Shoes to Lace

ages 5-6

Supplies

Cardboard, shoe laces, hole punch

Activity Detail

Trace your child's feet in his or her tennis shoes onto tagboard or cardboard and cut out the outline of the shoes. Then, mark eight spots on the shoes and punch out holes in these spots using a hole punch. Lace the cardboard cut-outs as you would your child's tennis shoes, and use them to help your child practice tying shoes.
