Free Coloring Play
Parent engages child in free-form coloring with markers or crayons, observing scribbling patterns and wrist movement. The agent coaches the parent to notice vertical/horizontal line attempts, wrist isolation, and finger tracing — building fine motor control and early writing foundations through creative expression.
Free to do together whenever you like.
What you'll need
Child seated at table or on floor with paper secured (tape corners if needed). Provide 2-3 chunky markers/crayons. Parent positioned nearby to model and observe. Paper should be large enough for free movement.
