How to Tie a shoe

Every morning every person in America has some final tasks to do before they leave their homes for their jobs, school, or some type of activity.  These tasks range from putting on clothes to locking up the house.  The final step I take when leaving my place of residence is to put on my shoes.  The first step in putting on a shoe is to put your foot into the inside of the shoe.  Then once your foot is in the shoe one must tie the shoe.  I can guarantee majority of Americans can tie a shoe, but can everyone remember where they learned to tie a shoe and how?  This remembrance is less common, but tying a shoe is like riding a bike, once it's learned it's simple.  Once the foot is in the shoe then pull the shoe laces tight and try to make them even lengths.  Then once the laces are tight it gets a little tricky.  There are two ways to proceed from here the first would be bunny ears and the second would be cris cross.  I personally prefer the cris cross so that is why will be taught.  First grasp each lace firmly and cross them one time as if tying a string.  Then once they are crossed make one into a bunny ear and wrap the free lace around the base of the bunny ear.  Once it is wrapped around, pull the free lace through the hole that has been made from wrapping the bunny ear.  As you pull the lace out it will begin to make a second bunny ear.  Make sure to only pull the second bunny ear as big as the first so the entire lace doesn't slip through causing the shoe tier to have to restart.  Once these simple steps are completed all that must be done is pull the two bunny ears tight and the shoe is tied.
