Teach Child to Tie Shoes

I am getting ready to help a child jump over another milestone. It's time to get my four-year-old started on learning to tie her shoes. About a week ago, she started wanting to tie her own shoes so that tells me it's time. There is this book that teaches a child how to tie shoes, with shoe laces and everything, that Santa is going to bring her so she can do it on her own. She's an independent little thing when she wants to be (only when she wants to be).

I'm hoping this will be easier than potty training went for her!
