 A fun way to help a child practice writing is by writing in sand. So what I have here is just some ordinary sand in a tray, and if you don't have sand you could use other materials like salt or flour, or even you could do this outside just by writing in the dirt. So you can write some words for the child and show them to the child, like here's the word big, and then they can write that word. It's a good idea to say each letter as they're writing it. So they can write B-I-G, and they can repeat that. B-I-G, big. And you can say very good, and they can erase the words with their hand. That's a fun part for the child to play in the sand. You can show them another word, like here we have hat. So the child can write that H-A-T hat. H-A-T hat. Very good. And they can erase that, and they can try another one. Here we have the word fun. So the child can write that one. F-U-N, fun. F-U-N, fun. Doing this activity will help the child practice writing letters and words.
