Easy Lace Shoe Laces Laces

Product Information

Learning how to tie shoelaces is one of those little things in life that seem easy to other children but to our dyspraxic kids it’s a huge challenge. But never fear, there are more ways to deal with this problem than you probably think. If the laces are too short, they won’t fit, and the shoe won’t provide a firm grip on your foot. When the laces are too long, they are not only hard to manage and keep tidy, but they also pose a tripping hazard. You can accidentally trip on your laces and fall.

But, although Mummy found them challenging to initially fit, little one now uses them very easily. You really just need to pull them on both sides until they are tight enough, and the coil shape keeps them in place.This cheeky little method just sneaked its way into the article as a new way to tie laces. Well, it’s new to me. So new that I haven’t tried it yet so I can’t comment on how effective it is, but my goodness it looks soooo much easier. You can try and make the whole shoelace-tying lesson more fun by using some props. We use the Melissa & Doug wooden shoe for our practising, as it’s a bit more robust for practising and you don’t have to worry about nasties on the bottom of shoes getting germs onto the carpet or your kids hands.

You don’t need any added hurdles when learning how to tie shoelaces, so start with just one shoe that your child isn’t wearing. You can then position it wherever is comfortable for your child. Why does the length of your shoelaces matter? As long as they are long enough to go through all the eyelets, isn’t that about it? This seems to be the easiest way to teach a child to tie their laces–my daughter is almost there with this method after only a few attempts 🙂 . There are no complicated instructions; it’s just a question of practice and remembering each small step. Go take a look! This shoetying method is broken down into easy steps, and requires you, as the teacher, to do a bit of preparation. So you can either colour in or mark dots on one side of the lace, and make a knot on the other side. I like the idea that there are recognisable visual clues–great for dyspraxic kids. Don’t have the existing laces? There’s another way. Lace-up your shoes with a piece of string or yarn until it looks fine. Once you set it up the same way, you want to lace up the new laces, remove the yarn and measure it. It’s a bit tedious, but it gets the job done. Factors that Could Affect Shoelace Length

The right length of laces also gives your shoe that elegant and organized look. They also work perfectly with any lacing designs you might have in mind. Finding the right length of shoelaces is more than just fitting the lace into all the eyelets. The right length of laces sits perfectly on your shoe, and managing the excess laces is often easy with numerous options available. Lacing styles can make or break your sneaker game. Depending on the type of shoe you have, there are numerous lace-up styles you can try out. When counting eyelets, most users forget to consider the distance between the eyelets. Some shoes like the Nike Air Presto have five eyelets. According to the size chart, you would need 50” laces. But you will find the laces are short. The Nike Air Presto actually needs 55” laces because the distance between the eyelets is wide. In other shoes and sneakers, the distance is narrow, and you should go with shorter laces on this occasion. What To Do If You Get the Wrong Length of Laces?
