"Hi, my name is Veronica Baragas with mywigglesandgiggles.com, and I'd like to share with you how to teach your kid how to tie their shoes. So, there are lots of fun and easy ways to do this. Definitely start with the way that maybe you tie your shoes, and just kind of walk them through the process. The way I like to do it is first, you would take the two shoes laces, and you'll crossover, loop through and make one small, little knot. Then I would start out with the first bunny ear, and tell them that the other shoelace is like another bunny ear, that crosses over, loops through the bunny hole and as you pull both of them out, they create a bunny ear effect. So, definitely just kind of walk them through the process, of whatever process it is that you have but once again, I would, you know first, grab your two shoelaces, crossover, pull through, tie your first little knot to secure your shoe and then start with your bunny ears. You know, your first right bunny ear, crossover, pull through to create your two bunny ears. So, that's an easy process, and make it a fun, excitement, fun and exciting, sorry, experiment for your kid."
