Tasks that require fine motor skills can be difficult for some people with Down syndrome.

People with Down syndrome tend to have smaller hands, shorter fingers, and loose/flexible ligaments. These factors may contribute to making it more challenging to do tasks that require fine motor skills. One such task is tying shoes. Wearing adaptive shoes and/or trying an alternative method for tying shoes may help. Please see the links below for resources on this topic.
