However, velcro ones are so much easier so we've stuck with them. Plan to for awhile until he starts kindergarten probably when they say kids should be able to tie their own shoes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-wearing-shoes-with-laces#post-2272541 Tue, 25 Aug 2015 10:07:04 +0000 T-Mom 2272541@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DD was 5. And let me tell you, it was the most frustrating thing ever to wait for her to tie them getting out the door and every time they came undone. Even last year was slow. It's much better now she's 7. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-wearing-shoes-with-laces#post-2272512 Tue, 25 Aug 2015 09:51:47 +0000 lamariniere 2272512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just bought DS his first pair of shoes with laces at 4.5. I foresee this being a giant pain, so it might be the last pair for some time. :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-wearing-shoes-with-laces#post-2272475 Tue, 25 Aug 2015 09:19:24 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 2272475@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just started wearing them (3.5 yrs). It's a pain to keep them tied, so we only have one pair with laces right now. She can't tie them herself yet. ... she still prefers her cowboy boots to all other shoes anyway lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-wearing-shoes-with-laces#post-2272423 Tue, 25 Aug 2015 08:45:02 +0000 mediagirl 2272423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did they request them or did you just start using shoes with laces? </p>
