Give your child the perfect start to early writing skills with this beautifully designed Readiness Programme Tracing Book. Created to support children well into their first year of school, this book is ideal for school readiness, remedial support, and extra practice at home.
This engaging programme focuses on developing crucial pre-writing abilities through fun, age-appropriate activities.
What this book aims to develop:
Stronger finger muscles: Essential for writing. Activities are designed to be completed using a pencil or coloured pencils to strengthen the same muscles used for handwriting.
Improved hand-eye coordination: Carefully structured tasks help children learn to control their hands while focusing visually—a key skill for writing and drawing.
How to use this book effectively:
Trace before colouring: Encourage your child to outline each picture before colouring it in. Tracing helps them learn to focus on boundaries—an important skill that builds figure–background perception needed for reading.
Teach pencil sharpening: Show your child how to sharpen pencils and always use a sharp point, as blunt pencils often result in untidy work.
Use the right pencil: If your child presses too hard, try a softer pencil like a 2B instead of an HB to reduce strain on the fingers.
Promote a positive attitude: Encourage perseverance and pride in completing tasks. Building this mindset early will support your child’s learning throughout their school years.
Model neat colouring: Help your child aim for neat, side-to-side colouring to achieve a clean finish.
With cheerful activities and helpful guidance, this tracing book makes early learning enjoyable and rewarding.
