Spring is in the air! You are looking for some fun, spring-themed activities to add to your day or therapy sessions? Today, I'm sharing a spring-themed pre-writing activity printable. This printable packet is designed for preschool through kindergarten-age children.
What Are Pre-Writing Skills?
If you are unfamiliar with this term, pre-writing skills refer to the lines and strokes young children need to know and master before moving on to formal handwriting. Pre-writing lines and strokes develop over time till about 5-6 years old.
I have a basics of pre-writing lines resource page that will give you more information and a pre-writing line skills checklist that you can grab here.
How To Use This Pre-Writing Activity Packet
I encourage you to think outside the typical pencil and paper activities, especially for your younger preschoolers. Here are some fun hands-on ways you can use these activity sheets.
- Use playdough to form each line.
- Peel stickers and use them to fill in each line.
- Use fine motor tongs to pick up beads or mini erasers to place on the lines.
- Use Wikki Stix to form each line.
