Letter Worksheet
Any parent looking to help their children practice with letters, while adding in some extra fun, should immediately grab this worksheet!
Instead of dull pencils and paper, kids can get creative with markers or crayons and draw through the maze.
Even better is that you can laminate it or put it into a plastic sleeve – then use edible markers like cereal (mmm!) or dry erase markers which even the youngest of kids can enjoy.
Not only will this help to develop their fine motor skills and recognize letters faster, but it offers an outlet for focus and concentration too!
Pattern Worksheet
Who doesn’t love a good pattern worksheet? They are fun, they help kids practice their scissor skills, and they encourage them to use the right amount of glue when it comes to putting the puzzle pieces together!
But more than that, pattern recognition worksheets allow young minds to hone their observation and analytical skills. Not only do kids have to be able to recognize patterns that are given to them, but they also have to be able to create them themselves.
So when kids are working on this pattern worksheet, there’s more going on than meets the eye!
Handwriting Worksheet
Handwriting practice is an essential element of a child’s learning journey, but it doesn’t have to be boring!
This handwriting page is designed with learning fun in mind – strengthening hand-eye coordination as kids practice forming letters and spelling the word “clock.”
To make this worksheet last even longer, we suggest laminating the page so it can be repeatedly written on.
Your little ones are sure to love this exciting way of learning letters and words in a fun, engaging way. So don’t wait – get this handwriting page and let the fun begin!
