Children need an upright easel to practice hand dominance and the proper pencil grasp. This child displays the mature 3 finger pencil grip. |

How have you found ways to display children's art/ photos in your class? I'm interested in hearing about it!
Happy playing!
That looks absolutely ingenious. I am going to have to give that a try.

ReplyDeleteI listed that the sofas were from Plush Sofas (an Australian chain store).
Our living room is really tiny (it looks bigger in the photos!) so they are compact little two seaters.
We got them as floor stock so they were a great price.
