I want my kiddos to feel comfortable writing on paper, but I also enjoy providing them with fun out-of-the-box activities, and tracing letters with water has quickly become one of our fav activities!
Step #1: Simply write a letter (or letters) using chalk on a chalkboard, and then demonstrate to your child how to “trace” over the letters using a wet paintbrush.
If your child is ready, encourage them to write the letters with chalk followed by “erasing” using this tracing method. They can even use this strategy to practice learning their name!
