Surprisingly, I have had an increase in head injuries and bitten lips as result of falls/trips due to untied shoelaces. If your child wears shoes with shoelaces, please encourage them to practice tying each night. If their shoelaces come untied during the day and they struggle to re-tie them, please encourage them to ask a friend or an adult to assist them to re-tie rather than leaving them untied and risking an injury. Thank you so much!
