- When finished, show the child how to take it out by picking and pulling the last bit of shoelace from the next hole that we are going to take out from.
- Pull the shoelace back through the hole. (i.e. the opposite direction)
Control Of Error
The templates with the punched holes provide guidelines for the child.
Points Of Interest
The children should be given a prepared set of materials for them to do the similar exercise after the demonstration.
