Dot-to-dot writing pattern strips

15 reusable laminated pattern strips for prewriting exercise. The child can first trace over the large, dotted patterns with his fingertips and then use water-based sketch pens to go over them. The cards are illustrated to make the exercise fun for the child. As he traces a pattern a dog gets his bone, a mouse his cheese, a swan reaches the pond and a baby his cot. When the ups, downs, curves and slashes begin coming naturally to her she is ready to graduate to writing letters.  
 
Make sure your child is ready to write by providing her activities to hone her fine motor skills in the first four years.
