Back to School Giveaway: Tie Buddies

Back to School is looming ever so close for us - 2 weeks to be precise for my little Kindergartner!

In preparation, my husband recently taught my 5 year old son how to tie his shoe laces in minutes - yes MINUTES.  We couldn't have done this without the help from Wendy, the inventor of Tie Buddies™. What’s the big deal you ask? Tie Buddies™ eliminate the “bunny-ears” or loops which cause much of the difficulty for children.

Check out this clip of my husband teaching my son for the first time.

Can you believe my son got it on the first try. 

Now all he asks for are his sneakers with laces.  Oh great - I've been stockpiling sneakers with velcro tabs.

There are two designs to choose from and each package contains 4 tie buddies:

Red and Green Race cars for the boys

and Fairy and Magic Wands for the girls

Take a look at the online store,  $8.99 + shipping and handling is a small price to pay for peace of mind.

Wendy has kindly offered 1 lucky winner a choice of the blue or pink Tie Buddies™
Please note this giveaway is only offered to continental US residents
