Drawing/Writing practice



I have these large sheets of paper that I use for painting on our easel but sometimes I like to surprise my kids and do something unusual, so we lay one of those sheets on the floor and use it for drawing and writing instead. I usually also provide my kids with a new set of crayons or surprise them, say, with a new batch of scented markers, so that they are excited about trying them. The fact that they are so big worked really well when my oldest daughter was 3 and I was teaching her how to write, because I used to give her lots of different tracing activities to do and the big size of the letters and drawings made it easier for her to reproduce.
