How to tie your martial arts belt

Alright, some of my Kids' Judo parents have asked me how they can help their kids learn to tie their own belts. Here is a very good video demonstration of the simplest method for learning to tie your belt. Some judo instructors make this a pre-requisite to starting judo - you have to be old enough to tie your own belt. I'm not a stickler for this, but I would really like the yellow belts to all be able to tie their own belts by the beginning of next judo season (this coming September).

Finally, good directions on how to tie a belt. I don't know why people have such trouble with it - it's only a square knot, but there are students at our dojo who have been training a long time and still can't get it right!
