HOW TEACH YOUR CHILD TO WRITE
When you teach a child
to write his name, you're developing his fine motor skills. You're
also preparing him for school. Most kids know how to write their name by the
time they enter kindergarten. Teach a child to write his name with methods that
are both fun and educational.
Print His Name as an Outline
Learning to write his name is a proud accomplishment. Make the task easier when
you print his name as an outline for him to follow.

Using a word
processing program or graphics
software, choose a large font and select outline. Type out your
child's name and print.
With pencil in hand, he'll focus on staying in between the lines while he
follows the pattern of the letters in his name. For repeated use, put a plastic
sheet protector over the paper. He can use a dry erase marker to practice
writing his name over and over again.
