Think and learn Alpha SlideWriter brings hands-on fun for children to learn how to write and spell in a mess-free way. With the movable tiles, children can touch each of the letters and slide them around to make a word. Then they can use that word as a model to practice writing, letter by letter, on the erasable screen. Printed guide lines on the screen help preschoolers know where to cross their Ts and dot those Is. The specially designed pen guides preschoolers into a correct and comfortable pencil grasp to help them develop important fine-motor skills. And when they've mastered that grasp, simply remove the triangle-shaped grip and store it on the back of the writing pad. Plus, the pen is conveniently tethered to the writing pad to prevent it from getting lost. Alpha SlideWriter is designed for children 3 to 6 years of age.
