Chalkdraw
Purpose
This activity helps in developing pre-writing and writing skills. ,, the child receives more kinesthetic feedback when drawing or writing with a chalk. Having the child lay prone on the floor helps with proximal stability and assists in strengthening the shoulder muscles.
Activity Steps
For this activity, you can have the child draw on a chalkboard or on the sidewalk.
While large chalks would work better on the sidewalk, try to use small (or even broken) chalk to promote a tripod grasp.
