high quality Plan Toys [45 OF 90 PEOPLE FOUND THIS HELPFUL]
Plan Toys (and Haba) are my two favorite companies. This shoe is the perfect size and it is high quality. My 3 1/2 year old twins are a little young to learn to tie a shoe but I am glad we have it already.

Great shoe-tying tool [99 OF 222 PEOPLE FOUND THIS HELPFUL]
I purchased this for my 4 year old and I have to say it's quite a challenge. Lacing and learning to cross each side is hard work, and then there's the tying. The shoe is a nice size and there are even treads on the bottom. Great for building focus and fine motor skills.

Not Yet [123 OF 256 PEOPLE FOUND THIS HELPFUL]
My daughter received this just before she turned 3. She like playing with it, but the purpose of helping to teach shoe tying was lost on her. I have put it away until she is a bit older. It does appear to be well made and should help her practice this skill when waiting at restaurants, in the car, etc.

Shoe tying practice [185 OF 399 PEOPLE FOUND THIS HELPFUL]
We're not quite at the shoe tying stage. My daughter just turned three. But, she's having a great time trying to figure it out. Excellent for children who need to be kept busy while waiting at the doctors office or while mom is feeding the baby.
