Tie a show with one hand - faster

One of the ways people find our blog is the "Can you tie a shoe with one hand" search, and it sends them to my family site where I have some old therapy things. About two weeks ago I shot video of Blondie tying her shoe (better than the photos I published over at the other blog) and THEN HER NEW TRICK.... a double knot.

So here is the tying shoe part. Please notice how short a time it takes her to do it now - some days one shoe is way under a minutes - slower than a two handed kid, but faster than me with one hand.



Here is the double knot. It isn't the greatest video, and I don't know what she does with her fingers, but she can do it. This is new, so it is definitely something that takes some time on her part. Soon she'll do it faster, but now its still something she has to think about - BUT I don't have to do it for her now.



Enjoy. Next post soon - I have more pics of ideas for playgrounds.
