Lacing cards give toddlers great fine motor practice for early shoe-tying skills. They are a simple and quiet way to keep kiddos entertained, and are super cute and colorful! These are on G's Christmas list.
There are lots of different options for lacing cards. You can even make your own for a more personalized gift. Just take some cardboard, trace the shapes that you'd like, cut them out, and add a pattern of holes with a hole puncher. You can paint or color the shapes however you'd like, buy some cheap shoe-strings or yarn, and voila! Homemade lacing cards :) Hmmm....maybe a tutorial post is in order...
If you're not into making your own, here are a few super cute choices. I'm feeling a very strong pull towards the Eric Carle and Dr. Seuss cards, they're just too perfect for words.
