I’ve tried the bears and the boards. She complains that the two items mentioned move too much. Is there any other products out there that I can try? I don’t want to buy her lace up shoes until she learns to tie them herself.

How do I get my child to put his shoes on the correct feet?

I have an autistic boy, 11 years old, who continues to put his shoes on the wrong feet, even though he knows which feet to put them on. We go through this everyday. Any idea of how I can stop this pattern?
