I'm slowly exposing to Archer to the idea of working at his desk. I'm hoping that as he gets used to it, it will open up a bunch of fun learning games for us. Lately, for fine motor development, I've been getting out some finger crayons.
I got these at Michael's for Archer's Easter basket. (These were the cheapest ones I found on Amazon). We'd tried regular toddler crayons and he just wasn't ready. I like the shape because he can hold it in his palm.
The first time, I used a big piece of paper and taped it to the table. Since then, I've been able to use regular paper and just hold it for him. We do it in very short bursts and it takes a lot of redirecting to keep him from eating them! I'm hoping this will put us on the path toward coloring, markers and other pre-writing skills!
