Explanation

An easy way to teach children how to tie their shoes. First, cross-twist the laces. Then, take each lace and make a loop (the ears). Cross the loops (crossed eyes) and pull the top loop back over, down and forward, and out through the triangle (nose). Pull the ears (loops) tight and – voilΓ  – you have a bow!
