Playdough
Playdough
In order to start to write, children’s hand muscles need to be strong enough to hold and control a pen. Playdough, or any activity where kids can manipulate a material with their hands is perfect for learning early literacy skills. Check out some of our favorite play doh activities from Mama OT.
Syllable Clapping
Syllable Clapping
Phonological awareness is the ability to notice or manipulate sounds in speech. Developing phonological skills such as breaking down spoken speech into words, syllables, and phonemes is an important stepping stone to eventually learning to read. So, working on syllable awareness and syllable segmentation is an essential literacy activity for kids.
Scribbling
Scribbling
Give your toddler a crayon or pencil with some paper and let them start scribbling away. Teach your child how to hold the pencil properly and practice together. This will help their fine motor skills and strengthen their hand and finger muscles so they can really start to write and draw.

"Experiences in the first three years of life have a strong impact on brain development and learning. They are the foundation for healthy development and strong child outcomes in the preschool years and beyond. In the Standards, developmental progress in key learning areas for infants and toddlers is presented in three age groups: birth to 9 months, 8 to 18 months, and 16 to 36 months. These age groups reflect common shifts or transitions in development. The overlapping months recognize that infants and toddlers grow and develop at different rates. The standards also provide specific skills, behaviors, and concepts that children should demonstrate by 36 months."
