For the grown-up

Tips for little hands

Thick crayons, short crayon pieces and chunky pencils are easier to hold.
Let your child trace with a finger first, then with a crayon.
One sheet, or even one row, is plenty. Stop while it's fun.
Put the sheet in a clear sleeve and use a dry-erase marker to trace it again and again.

Hand skills away from the paper

Roll, squeeze and pinch play dough.
Pick up pom-poms or cereal with clothespins or tongs.
Thread big beads or pasta tubes on a shoelace.
Draw in a tray of salt or sand with a finger.
Tear paper into strips and glue them down.
