PreHandwriting Skills to Start Now

December 29, 2020

Writing is a core subject that propels all learning. So, it’s important to build writing skills from the beginning. But, what about preschoolers? Three-year-old children are generally not ready for writing, however, prewriting activities are crucial for this age. So here is how to teach prewriting skills to your preschooler.

Should Children Learn to Trace?


Tracing is the first step to writing. It builds fine motor skills, as well as pencil control. Pre-writing tracing activities also build muscle memory. This helps increase coordination and will make actual writing easier when the time comes. There are so many options to practice tracing. You could teach your child to trace using letters and numbers or everyday objects like animals. It really doesn’t matter what the child traces, the important part is using muscle coordination to do it.

Also, remember that young children thrive on repetition, so completing the same activity more than once is beneficial. Here are some tracing pre-writing activities that you can start today:

Playdough Teaches Important Prewriting Skills


Who doesn’t like playing with play dough? It squishes, it rolls, and it provides hours of imaginative fun. All of that fun is really hard work. Play dough is a key prewriting activity.

How Writing in Sand Teaches Children to Write

Writing in sand, salt, or flour is similar to tracing. However, it provides a tactile experience that helps train the brain. Moreover, it’s just plain fun! Kids can’t wait to get their fingers in the sand and instinctively start drawing lines, circles, and designs.

This activity is low cost and easy to set up. You probably already have everything you need around the house. Simply fill a shallow pan or tray with sand, salt or flour. The tray can be stored in a plastic storage bag. If using flour, change regularly to prevent it from going rancid. There are also numerous tracing pages that you can put under the sand to help develop muscle control and fine motor skills.

Name Tracing Worksheets

January 28, 2020

Are you ready to teach your preschooler or precocious child his or her first and last name?!! If they are in preschool, they are at the perfect age to get started. Or, maybe your child is frustrated with learning how to write his name independently?  I’ve got a great strategy for helping this first step in learning how to write — our Name Tracing Worksheets, or Editable Spelling Fine Motor Pack.

However, before I share with you this secret weapon on teaching how to spell first and last names, let’s talk about the importance of name recognition in preschool.

Importance of Name Recognition in Preschool

From an early age, a child hears his or hear name several times throughout the day. They learn it verbally, then in written form. They may see it on their own possessions like toys or inside books etc.

It’s the most important word they hear as they associate it with themselves. Mom wants to see me, it’s time for lunch, let’s go to Grandma’s. All of these thoughts are flooding their mind — it’s associated with love and affection. And, of course, they LOVE to hear their own name as they feel important and it provides a special meaning to them.

When Should a Child Learn to Write their Name?

Typically, most children learn to recognize letters in general by ages 3 or 4. And, it’s most likely going to be their own name first. In other words, preschool is a great time to teach and practice first and last names.

Best Way to Teach Writing First and Last Name

At around three or four years of age, you can encourage your child to write their name using a variety of materials. With our Name Tracing Worksheets, it’s super easy to get started. Everything you need is provided for you in a simple, low prep way.

In addition, when your child is ready, he or she can also practice spelling sight words, spelling lists, or even names, while building key fine motor skills. Our Editable Spelling Pack grows with your child(ren)!

Here’s how easy it is:

  1. Download and open the Editable Spelling Pack from the email.

  3. Have fun with your child! As he or she gets creative, talk about the name of the letter along with the sound it makes. You could even through in some simple words they already know.

It’s also the perfect solution especially if you are looking for an online spelling program. And, the best part, you won’t need to be online to use it once you download it! Grab a device and use it in the car while traveling, taking the older kids to soccer, or waiting for their sibling to finish piano lessons.

Here are some innovative ideas your student will use to help learn to spell their own name with editable name tracing sheets:

How to Set Achievable Goals for your Preschooler

February 16, 2019

By the time your curious preschooler reaches the age of 3 or 4, their learning development has grown exponentially! They will hit many milestones, but sometimes it’s not clear what and how many milestones you should expect. Knowing what pre-reading skills to focus on will help you identify how to set achievable goals for your preschooler.

What Your Preschooler Needs to Know:

During the preschool stage, you’ll notice a strong desire for independence, along with a ton of exploration. It’s important to determine typical cognitive goals to ensure they are ready for the next BIG step — Kindergarten!

Preschool Readiness: Color Recognition

One of your preschool goals should be to teach the basic palette of colors. By four, children should be able to identify basic hues like red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, white, black, and brown. Your child should also be able to name, match and identify these colors. For example, can your preschooler match a brown chair to a similar brown construction paper?

Preschool Readiness: Math Skills

Early childhood education is a perfect time to introduce simple math concepts. It helps build a foundation for their next challenge with each passing new year. Preschoolers can develop a keep sense of math for identifying numbers and communicating a variety of sizes and shapes.

Another goal is to introduce math activities that include names of shapes and manipulate shapes as well as numbers and counting.

Preschool Readiness: Letter Recognition

Recognizing letters is an important key to pre-reading during the preschool phase. Alphabetic recognition prepares preschoolers to begin decoding words associated with their everyday language development. There are many letter recognition activities through hands-on learning.

Some pre-reading skills for preschoolers would include naming each letter, matching the letter name on paper, and identifying upper and lower case letters.

Preschool Readiness: Oral and Phonics

Wondering how to prepare your preschooler for reading? There are a few skills your child should master before beginning to read, besides letter recognition. Knowing what signs to look for will help identify the best time for teaching how to read.

Oral communication is also key to begin reading. Simply reading to your child for 15 to 20 minutes a day and asking questions for comprehension awareness prepares your child for narration. Reading aloud to your child daily makes a huge impact on their communication with others.

Practicing phonics awareness is also an essential step to reading. Taking simple words like ‘cat’ and changing the letter to ‘hat’ gives your child rhyming skills. Nursery rhymes and memorizing poems are wonderful tools for increasing their word playing.  

Preschool Readiness: Fine Motor Skills

Giving your child opportunities to practice writing the alphabet is a great way to strength fine motor skills. Yet, there are also other tools in your tool belt to build these critical muscle movements.

While many daily activities like dressing, eating, and playing require these small but special skills, there are other intentional ways to prep your child.
Always have these tools available: colored pencils for writing, safe scissors for cutting, glue for pasting, games using computer mouse, or playing a musical instrument. All of these activities contribute to fine motor skills including muscle strength and coordination.

We hope this preschool checklist will give all preschool moms and teachers a simple guide on what to expect for your preschooler. Don’t be surprised how fast they learn in some areas, while others are more difficult.

Remember, all children learn at their own pace. It’s our job as parents to make sure that the learning process is fun and exciting for them throughout their preschool journey!

Preschool Mom has a TON of free and frugal resources to help you stay on track with your preschool objectives. Don’t miss out on these preschool readiness resources!

Should I Homeschool my Preschool Child?

February 15, 2019

As your child enters the preschool stage, panic may start to set in as the question looms, “Should I homeschool my preschooler?” While it’s true that there are benefits to homeschooling your preschooler, there are also legitimate concerns on focusing too much on academics at an early age.

Here are some points to consider when answering the question on whether you should homeschool a preschooler. Every child has unique learning abilities, and that’s the beauty of being a parent — you make the decision that is perfect for your child!

Preschool Homeschooling is already LIVE at Home

Believe it or not, preschool is already happening in your home. Whether they are independently playing with blocks, putting together puzzles, or you are singing the ‘ABC’ song, they are already living in an educational environment. It’ doesn’t have to be a formal or classroom setting.

Homeschooling allows the flexibility to what works best for every situation. Plus, it can be tailored to changing circumstances at any time. Remember, your child is getting a one-on-one learning experience with positive surroundings.

Parents are in control of Education

Whether you want your child to get dirty all day outside or quietly sit while drawing at the table, you are in charge! Preschool kids need to learn to do both. They can explore and discover the possibilities outside, and practice control while sitting quietly in their chair doing hands on activities.

Preschool Homeschooling is Low Cost Education

Since parents are in charge of education, they also determine the homeschool budget. If you would send your child to a private preschool, you’re forking over hundreds of dollars. At home, however, you can buy free and low cost supplies online and at stores. In addition, you can preschool your child for just a few dollars. And, I’ll show you how below.

Preschool Families have a Flexible Schedule

Families who like to travel or have inconsistent schedules, enjoy the flexibility when preschooling their child. One perk is going on vacation during the off peak season — it’s affordable and less crowded. In addition, this gives the family more time together and opportunities for field trips and appointments during the day.

Based on these key points, have you answered the question — should I homeschool my preschooler? Every family must answer this question based on their situation, but here are some questions to ask:

  1. Am I able to carve out less than an hour to focus on teaching preschool activities?
  2. Is following instructions and print out worksheets for my child an issue for me?
  3. Can I provide homeschool materials for my child like paper, crayons, colored pencils, markers, and pencils?
  4. Do I have a clean environment for my child to work at like a desk or a space at the table?

If the answers to all these questions is a resounding ‘yes’, you may have the answer. If any of your answers are no, you may consider what it would take to reach these goals if you are serious about homeschooling.

How to Choose the Right Preschool Curriculum

February 15, 2019

As your child reaches school age, it begins a bittersweet journey to more independence! It’s exciting to examine all the learning tools and possibilities for your inquisitive,exploring child. Yet, the choices and decisions to make for your preschool child can be somewhat daunting! Here are 4 tips on how to choose the right preschool curriculum for your child!

Early Childhood Education & Learning Styles

Each child is prone to a particular learning style. The three typical learning styles are: visual, auditory and kinesthetic learning.

Visual learning, or spatial learning style, is a way of process information through images. With this particular learning style, your child should see expectations first before beginning an activity.

This style is actually the easiest to teach since you can use workbooks, books and videos to stimulate their learning skills. However, the downside is they are easily distracted by shiny objects and squabbling siblings! Having a quiet area to work in is ideal.

An auditory learner’s strength lie within their listening skills. They depend mostly on remembering through speaking whether its themselves talking or receiving information through instruction. Auditory educational tools include read alouds, audio books, memorization through songs, and conversations.

A kinesthetic learner easily understands concepts using a multi-sensory approach. They enjoy hands on activities, constantly moving, and new experiences. You may notice they can’t sit still, do not enjoy reading, and have difficulty spelling.

Some of the best resources for kinesthetic learners are manipulatives, drawing materials, computer based programs, and clay. You’ll want to look for anything they can physically touch or use most of their senses.

Teaching Styles and Life Situations

Before deciding on the best choice for preschool curriculum, you must review your current lifestyle. It takes a considerable time commitment to teach your preschooler. There is planning, execution, and maintenance required for homeschooling at any age. You should not expect to run your homeschool along the rigid standards of a standard preschool classroom.

Ask yourself these questions before reviewing potential preschool curriculum:

  1. How much time do I have during the day to teach my child?
  2. Am I a creative person and do I get inspired to create new things or assemble activities?
  3. Would I enjoy organizing and maintaining a schedule using calendars, check lists, and planning field trips?
  4. Am I willing to change teaching methods if they don’t work on my child?

If most of the answers are yes, you may consider reading books about how to design your own curriculum. Or, peruse the web for a plethora of ideas on crafts, hands-on activities, learning centers, and more! In fact, we’ve collected many homeschool preschool ideas for you.

However, on the flip side — if most of the answers are no, you may want to consider buying a prepacked curricula. Thankfully, there are a TON of resources available for busy moms today.

Buying a complete set of curriculum should be on your short list of priorities. This goes especially for moms who have very little preparation time. Many experienced homeschool veteran moms and teachers have already paved the way and have done the work for you!

Preschool Programs: Goals and Standards

Have you thought about goals for your child going into the preschool stage? Do you want to instill a love for learning? Is learning the bible a priority? Will play time be a part of his/her day? How about play dates or structured activities? Whether his/her education is learning how to count, prereading, or letter recognition and writing, write all of your expectations down on paper.

Do you have a budget in mind? Maybe you are on one income, and money is tight. There are several free and frugal resources online. You would be amazed at the premium preschool products available online that fit any budget!

Preschool Child’s Interests

How interested will your child be in learning their preschool milestones? If a child is not excited about the subject they are absorbing, both of you will become frustrated quickly! Avoid any rigid lessons, instead, look for exciting and inviting programs! They should also include several hands-on activities, read alouds, sensory play, and nature adventures.

Unit studies or thematic units are a perfect option for young students. They focus on one topic, but include a variety of subjects like math, science, geography, and more! You can find any subject your child loves online.

As you determine your priorities and expectations with preschool development, consider all of these factors. This will help you choose the right preschool curriculum for your budget, your situation, and your family. Preschool is a fun and wonderful age for exploratory learning! Giving your child the tools they need to prepare is key to their education in the future.
