As with any of your
child's new skill, your job is to provide encouragement and support.
In the past, reading and writing remained a mystery to most children until they entered
school. However, its not so any longer. As early as his first birthday, be sure to have
his supplies of crayons, papers, colouring books, when he shows interest in scribbling. |

How to develop the writing
skills
1. |
Write your child's name on his pictures and ask
"whose name is that?" |
2. |
Give him plenty of paper, crayon, chalk board,
magnetic letters. |
3. |
If he's interested make lines and circles on
paper and ask him to imitate them. |
4. |
Applaud his attempt. |
5. |
The more language he hears, the faster will his
communication skills improve including writing. Read and talk to your child as much as
possible. |
The most important thing you
can do is let your child learn at his own pace. Each child has his non-developmental time
table and priorities. Don't criticize.
