Personalised Pre-Writing Practice Mat (Stage 1): Wipeable Learn To Write Name Tracing Set

Pre-writing skills are the key skills children require before they are able to write making a great gift for pre-schoolers or children about to start school.

These skills contribute greatly to the child’s ability to draw, colour and write and play a major role in their ability to hold and use a pencil.

The 9 key pre-writing shapes make up most letters and numbers and your child will typically be able to master these shapes with practice when they are developmentally ready (see photo gallery for 'what to expect').

Our pre-writing learning mats are designed to help your child practice tracing and copying the key shapes and patterns required before moving onto letter formation. They build confidence making sure your child is truly ready to start forming letters.

Pushing a child to learn to write too early can be detrimental to their future learning in all subject areas so it is very important to take their time and get it right to avoid forming bad habits.
