"This was a worthwhile investment. I purchased the Tic-Toc the Clown book for my son on my way home from work and we began practicing that night. By the following week he wanted to tell time on everyone’s watch".

"I bought another shoe tying book for my daughter but it was hard for her to use on her own since she had to set down the laces to turn the page each time. Then I found the Slipknot Sam book that doesn't require you to turn the page in between steps".
Julia Moser

"I was thrilled with the shoelace book. It is virtually impossible to find any products on the market that also take into consideration children who are left-handed. Being right-handed parents of a left-handed child, made the tricky task of teaching to tie a shoe surprisingly simple".
Estrella Sousa

"With the Slipknot Sam book my 5 year-old daughter learned how to tie her shoe with the bunny ears method in about an hour. I worked with her and she just sat down and practiced. The laces are two different colors so it made it easy to use, and the shoelace song and instructions makes it fun to learn".
Andrea Weaver

"Basically, I have an 8 year old who has yet to be able to tie his shoes. Although the story is a bit "young", the training laces consisting of a shoelace with a snakehead attached, has been extremely helpful in differentiating between the two ends. He is happy to use it to practice and we've seen progress".
Carolyn Seagrave

"We got our son this book for his 6th birthday. I admit we relied pretty heavily on velcro shoes for the past 6 years. It was nice to have a choice between the Basic Bow and Bunny Ear methods so that my son could choose the style that worked best for him".
Jun Wang

"My 5 year old had been trying to tell time without success. We've tried many different methods with not much luck past the o'clocks. After reading Tic-Toc the Clown and using the interactive clock on the CD-ROM, she's now actually telling time on analog clocks. It's slow going, but she really gets it now".
Erica Carlson

"I bought the Slipknot Sam book for my son to encourage him to tie his shoes. Although, it didn't help in convincing him to start, it did help once he decided to learn. He loves wearing the Slipknot Sam laces in his shoes and it also means he is able to practice wherever he goes".
Kristo Argos

"After spending a few months trying to teach my four year old how to tie his shoes (and succeeding only in frustrating him), his grandmother gave him the Slipknot Sam book as a gift. Within a week or two, he was tying his shoes perfectly! I like the books construction (it's a board book) with character shoelaces and a fun story that teaches shoe tying with an easy to learn song".
Ileana Levinson

"My 4-year-old daughter practiced with Tic-Toc the Clown for about two weeks and is now the only child in her class that can tell time. She is so proud of herself! I think this is a wonderful book, with an excellent interactive clock that gives kids positive reinforcement whenever they get the time right. I would recommend it for any child who is ready to try to tell the time".
