Building Letters and Shapes

Building Letters and Shapes

We are continuing with our “building” theme this week at Camp Splish Splosh. Today we used wikki stix and pop its (I honestly do not know what they’re called, I ordered them from Amazon and the wording on the bag is in a language I’m not familiar with).

This is a great way to work on prewriting skills/writing skills. Some children needed to work on building shapes from a model, some worked on building letters from a model and some worked on building words independently. The pop its are always a great way to work on fine motor stability (pushing them together) and motor planning (you have to turn them sideways to pop them together).

So if you have a Preschooler or rising Kindergartner and you would like to work on some prewriting/writing skills, grab some wikki stix or beads and enjoy!

Stay safe everyone!
