This activity was inspired by @mansiambaliya .  * Pre-writing - place coloured dots on a page, ask your child to draw pre-writing lines in the matching colour from one dot to the next. I’ve used a chalk dice to provide some line options. Work on pencil grasp, pencil control, visual spatial awareness, form constancy.  * Fine motor challenge - use Cotton tips (Q-tips) and colour in the ends to match your chosen colours. Trace the pre-writing lines but you can’t put down the cotton tips. You can make it even harder by keeping both cotton tips in one hand.
