Raised Writing Activity: Teach Your Toddler to Write
The process of learning to write can be difficult but fun new ways of getting toddlers to trace letters can be fun. This activity allows you to turn it into an art project!
If you're worried about your letters coming out accurately, I've included a printable letter template that you can trace over with the glue. Scroll down after the directions to get it. š
What You'll Need:
Paper
Glue
String
Markers
Directions
With the glue, write out the letter(s) you are working on.
Lay the string over the glue and press lightly to make sure it sticks, then wait a few minutes for it to dry.
Once dry, have your toddler use the markers to trace over the string.
This activity gives them something tactile to follow and may help them understand the shape of the letter better. For further learning, have them trace over it with their fingers and repeat the letter names and sounds.
