Learning to tie shoelaces poem?

[Tigger&Belle]

Does anyone know what the little poem is that can be said when tying shoes? I'm teaching my 5yo to tie his shoes and I can't remember what it is.

It's not coming up--what did you search for at that site? I tried "shoelaces poem" and nothing comes up.

I have a five year old boy and we use this rhyme. The words are in blue and the actions are in gray.

Make a tee-pee(cross the laces)
Go inside(wrap one lace under)
Lock it tight so we can hide!(pull quickly to tighten)
Over the mountain(make first loop)
Around we go(wrap other lace around loop & thumb)
Here's my arrow(get ready to pull)
And Here's my Bow!(pull second lace to make bow)

Thanks, too, Narvon! You'd think that with him being my 4th child that I'd know these things, but I've forgotten.
