3 years & up. Pre-writing activities help young children, as well as older children with special needs, to build fine motor skills, and the language to talk about shapes and patterns. This app/software helps develop and consolidate such skills and supports the early development of good letter formation. Select a pebble from the array and watch its pattern created by the fish in the rock pool. Trace the track of the bubbles with your finger, watching your pattern appear. Choose the same or a different pebble from the array to continue practicing. Teacher options provide the facility to select what patterns the user can access for more focused work.

Emma C. ★★★★★

The tracing patterns are big and clear on our tablet, so my son can actually follow them without squinting. It’s been a great way for him to practice the language around shapes, and he’s staying focused longer than I expected.

James X. ★★★★★

My daughter’s OT suggested this for tracing practice, and the tablet version keeps her engaged without needing paper. The shape-and-pattern language prompts are a nice touch—she’s started saying "wiggly line" on her own. Definitely worth the download for fine motor work.

Benjamin ★★★★★

My son has been using this app on his tablet to trace the lines and curves, and I've already noticed his pencil grip improving. The speech bubble teaching him to say "zigzag" is a nice touch he keeps repeating. We’re both happy with it.
