Hey – we *all* have our moments. And with this tip – you’ll instantly have two sets of bi-colored laces – one for your son *and* daughter!

(hits forehead) Duh! Thanks for explaining it like I’m a kid. I am just apparently too tired! LOL!
Thanks for sharing this tip. My son has been struggling and my daughter will be coming up on this soon too.

Hi Michelle! You need to cut the shoelaces in half so that when you tie the two different colors together the resulting lace isn’t waaay too long for the shoe (it would be twice as long since you’ve just put two together). Does that makes sense?

I don’t understand why you cut it in half and tie it together. I read it a few times and I just can’t get it!
