Abstract Shape Pre-Writing Playdough Log Slices - Set of 5
Abstract Shape, Mark Making & Pre-Writing Playdough Log Slices
Before children begin writing, their hands need to build strength, coordination, and control. My beautifully crafted wooden log slices are designed to support this vital stage of development, encouraging little hands to explore patterns, shapes, and textures through play.
How They Work:
Designed for use with playdough, clay, sand, or simply on their own, these tactile log slices invite children to trace, press, and create marks - building the essential fine motor skills they need for writing later on. Whether they're running their fingers along the grooves, stamping into dough, or creating patterns with natural materials, children will be engaging in a fun and hands-on learning experience.
What's Included:
- Set of 5 unique log slices (randomly selected from a total of 8 designs)
- Each slice is crafted from natural wood, making every set beautifully unique
- Perfectly sized for little hands to explore and engage with
