Movable AlphabetCursive, Lower Case, European

Movable Alphabet: Cursive, Lower Case, European gives the child loose lower case letters to build words with, long before the hand can write them. A word is said slowly out loud, one sound at a time, and the letter for each sound is picked out and laid down from left to right until the whole word is on the mat. Breaking a word into its sounds and laying the letters side by side separates composing from the effort of handwriting, so sound analysis and the pleasure of writing arrive early. For children from three years who already know the sandpaper letters.
