I was looking for things to do with our almost 3 year old at home while our newborn was taking his nap the other day. I wanted to find something that's somewhat eucational yet can be done quietly so that we could make it an activity during baby's nap time or during quiet time on days when C wants to skip his naps.
A while ago, C was really into the line tracing activities in one of his colouring books so I started looking up line tracing printables on pinterest. I ended up seeing various pins on letter tracing.. on line tracing.. and eventually came across customized name tracing worksheets! So I printed a copy for C and planned to laminate it so that it could be used over and over again with a dry erase marker. The printout size is perfect for a preschooler. Not only are the words (names) customizable, the fonts are customizable too.

Unfortunately, C only showed interest in it for a short period of time so it didn't exactly do it's job of keeping him busy like I had originally hope for. However, I'm still bookmarking the page as it would be such an useful tool to have when he does start to learn to write in preschool.
