[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Developmentally the things 3 year olds should be able to draw are circles. Whole letters aren't expected until later.[/quote] OP here. He’s been able to draw circles in the dirt since he was two. Does that count? [/quote] Yes. There is nothing wrong with starting with huge writing.` https://www.amazon.com/Trace-Pre-Cursive-Practice-Thinking-Kids/dp/1483851958 I use this with my son. I photocopied the easiest pages. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RclxBdiuvOM alligator grip Get a textured alphabet and he can trace with a finger. Make sure you are showing him the correct starting position and directions etc. or else he will have to unlearn everything. Agree with the duplo, playdoh etc. If he hates it and it is advanced for his age (and it is) don't do it. Give him 6 months or a year. [/quote]
