This means that they develop the ability and skill to perform tasks of practical life themselves, depending on their particular readiness and stage of development. Practical life skills include a range of activities designed to develop the child’s independence and self-reliance.This task is a practical life skill designed to teach the child how to tie his own shoe laces and to develop hand-eye coordination. It helps the child gain a step towards his own independence and gives him a sense of self sufficiency. This task encourages sensory and visual refinement by teaching the child to feed the laces through the toggles. It
