Leapfrog Scribble & Write.

A brilliant toy that tricked my son into thinking he was playing when he was actually learning! The Scribble & Write from Leapfrog teaches children how to write, it really is amazing.

My son is 4yrs old. He reaches for his Scribble & Write first thing every morning, and wouldn’t part with it. It comes in the car, to the shops and if we visit friends, he brings it along too. It is small enough to be easily portable, but big enough not to get lost or left behind anywhere!

It works by showing children upper and lower case letters and numbers and they trace the outline with a pen attached. It provides guidance on how to write the letters, for example, always start at the top. This is very important as children who learn incorrectly find it very difficult to change their habit at a later stage. Instant feedback is given so children can learn if incorrectly writing letters or numbers.

Children can also draw shapes and pictures, which is a lot of fun and offers variety from solely letters and numbers.

I would recommend this for every child from the age of 3 years, as it has definitely helped my son learn the correct writing technique in a fun way.
