About This Item

The sandpaper letters guide the hand for writing as the child traces the letter shapes in the style and direction that they are written.
All lowercase letters are pink and capital case letters are blue.
Practice capital and lowercase usage.

Tactile and Visual Stimulation

The sandpaper letters allow the child to understand writing before they can hold a pencil. The child uses three of the five senses; tactile, auditory, and sight to learn the sound and formation of each letter. In the interaction of visual and tactile linguistic stimulation, children can learn and remember letters better.

Concept of the Letters

The sandpaper letters guide the hand for writing as the child traces the letter shapes in the style and direction that they are written. The sandpaper letters will improve the children’s knowledge from the tactile experience of these letters, and also will help the students make the connection between the physical movement of forming letters and the actual letter shapes. Children can compare the capital to the lowercase letter and recognize when the capital letter is used.

Item Use

The sound games are prerequisite for the sandpaper letters and are great learning activities. The child can be advanced or possibly just learning for this exercise. In both cases, the activity works great with their language skills. The child will get both visual and kinesthetic impressions of each letter, and will advance in spelling, writing, reading, and speech. The item itself has 26 lower and upper case sandpaper letters. All lowercase letters are pink and capital case letters are blue.

Some examples of small activities for the sandpaper letters could be:
Trace the letter in the air and have the child say its sound.
Sound the letter and have the child write the letter.
Spelling Contest with two-three letter words.
