Additional Information:
Joshua (2Y5M28D) tried this for the first time today. This is perhaps more suited for 3 years old, as at the age of 2.5 years old, Joshua doodles rather than trace, and grip the marker with a fist, rather than using the pincer grip, but nevertheless, it is still good practice for him. This is something he can grow with.

This is a good learning tool to help Joshua with practising his hand-writing when he is older. I can just slip in practice sheets like pictures, letters, math, telling time, etc.


I bought the Dry Erase Activity Center from Amazon:
