Toys that make practicing handwriting and coloring FUN!
These toys are appropriate for children 2 years+.
|
| The Color Wonder products are great- especially for "beginning artists" (ages 2-6). The markers create marks with less effort than crayons, and the ink will only appear on compatible products (which means you don't have to worry about markers on the walls or furniture!) Another great feature of the coloring books is the reinforcement of successfully "coloring in the lines"- the nature of the product guarantees successful results for those children who are easily frustrated. |

| Food Markers are so much fun! Get creative- color monsters on marshmallows before you roast them or squash them down. Color on your cookies or make a design on your sandwich bread. |

|
| Aquadoodle products are fantastic! Color and draw with special water-filled pens and watch it disappear like magic! 'No-mess" makes it an even better toy, especially to take in the car. (ages 2-6 years) |

| PENCIL GRIPS- these are THE BEST pencil grips out there! (And believe me, I check out all of them) they encourage proper finger placement for the most efficient pencil grasp. With proper grasp, handwriting becomes neater. This grip also helps children who hold the pencil too tightly on fatigue easily when writing. |
