The Rabbit and The Fox song and animated video makes it easy to remember how to tie a tie. See the story and illustrations at http://www.sybrina.com/index_How_To_Tie_A_Tie_Story_of_the_Rabbit_and_the_Fox.htm
Here are the song lyrics so you can sing along!
Rabbit and the fox, Rabbit and the fox.
Have you heard about the rabbit and the very hungry fox? Fox licked his chops and rabbit ran off Cause he wasn't about to get caught by fox. So, twice around the tree the little rabbit ran With the quick gray fox close behind.
Under a bush, the little rabbit fled escaping that fox one more time. With a giant leap, rabbit barely cleared the top of a big, round log.
Poor fox could only watch as the little rabbit dove To the safety of his cool, dark hole.
Rabbit and the fox, Rabbit and the fox.
No rabbit dinner tonight for this slow fox.
Rabbit and the fox. Rabbit and the fox.
And that's the way you tie a tie with Rabbit and the Fox.
