[quote=Anonymous]My son (who is 3.5) has never had an interest in coloring, cutting, playdoh, or writing. He knows the alphabet and the sound each letter makes, but ask him to trace a letter and he has as much interest (and talent) as a 1 year old. He also is not very good at wielding a spoon or fork, and I realize I've played into that by either serving finger friendly (to him) foods, or helping him myself. I am trying to turn this all around in various ways, but it's with the drawing/writing I'm having the hardest time. I remember classmates of mine using a little rubber triangle thing attached to their pencil to help them hold correctly. Is this still the go to correction, or can you suggest anything else now a days? thank you![/quote]
