Practicing writing skills with your child will strengthen their body and mind.
The act of writing requires a specific finger grasp. Practicing this motion will strengthen the muscles in your child’s hand allowing them to write more before muscles get tired.
Other benefits of writing early:
- Strengthens ability to understand the complex building blocks of speech
- Understand the concept of the printed word as a way of communicating
- Learning another important avenue to express thoughts and emotions
