Shoe laces come untied. Kids will get their bows secured by tying the 'rabbit ears' in a knot on top of the bow. The problem with double tying shoes is that you can't pull the free end to untie the laces.
Here is a knot that you can use every day that will improve your life - if you have shoe laces.
When tying your shoes, go around the 'rabbit ear' gripped between thumb and index finger twice instead of once. Simple. Much more secure and it can be untied with a firm pull on the free end. This seems to be the online version: Ian's Shoelace Site - Better Bow Shoelace Knot though this description seems harder than when I do it. The site has many cool ways of tying your shoes.
