A practical and useful activity for children to help them as they begin to write the alphabet. It features a set of two-inch lowercase letters on individual templates. The template guides the pencil through the letter configuration, forcing the pencil to lift in the stroke sequence of making the letter. It allows the child to feel the motion of making the letter. Children can practice the flow of the motion in learning how each letter is made. After they have gone through the motion a few times, they are encouraged to remove the template and retrace the letter, connecting the lines. This extended activity helps to develop your child's fine motor skills. Children are then encouraged to reproduce the movement, unassisted. This is a great learning tool for children with special needs.
