Can your school aged child do up their shoelaces?

What's the rabbit round the tree rhyme again. DD can't and she is five just started prep this year.

DD1 is almost 7 and can't tie shoelaces. She tries to tie her dressing gown with a bow though. I think with her though it is mostly due wearing girlie shoes with buckles or velcro straps.

Kameron can do it, he only learnt last year. I gave up trying to teach him and Andrew managed to do it. Lachlan can I think but they both prefer to tie them up loose so they can just pull their shoes on and off.
