User Submitted Melissa & Doug Deluxe Wood Lacing Sneaker ReviewsDate: 2008-11-20 Basically just a practice tool First I'll say that, like anything else I've ever purchased by Melissa & Doug, this item is very well-made. Very chunky, very sturdy, nice weight, smooth to touch. However, the shoe was not exactly what I was expecting. I assumed, since the product description mentioned "teaches your child", that there would be some sort of accompanying pamphlet, containing tips/tricks for the child. There is just the shoe and that's it. So I would consider this to be just a "practice shoe", nothing more. Had I known this before, I would not have purchased this item, since my son can use any old shoe in our house to practice on. Date: 2008-09-09 Its okay Its a great idea but its kind of chunky and hard to hold. I have a two year old and a three year old and they keep trying to put their foot in it and it and end up getting stuck and frustrated. I wouldnt purchase this item again. I love Melissa and Doug products but this one still needs some work. Date: 2008-08-11 Durable and helpful This is a well made product. The shoe is wooden and the lace is nice and long and hasn't frayed yet. My youngest daughter (2 1/2 years) does always want to put the shoe on (to no avail). It has been helpful for my eldest daughter (almost 4 years) to learn to tie a shoe. Although she hasn't mastered the art of shoe tying, I believe the wooden shoe is helping. I think this a better idea than all those books that explain how to do it because everyone seems to do it a little differently. I give the shoe 5 stars for the purpose it was intended for - Although don't expect your child to think it is the most fun "toy" ever! Date: 2008-07-06 Melissa and Doug has done it again! Its funny how you take something like this, put it in front of a child that has been having difficulty learning to tie shoes and he learns in about 5 minutes. Amazing quality! Date: 2008-01-25 Great idea My daughter is almost 5 and got this for Christmas. I love the concept and hope that she will use it eventually. Right now, she and her 3 year old sister would rather take the string off (it comes off completely which I don't like) and tie it around their necks and pretend to be puppies. So, for now it is on top of our fridge.
