FIRST NAME MAT WITH SHAPES | PEN CONTROL PRACTICE

Sale price £7.25

Tax included

£3.50 standard shipping (added at checkout)

Design: Dino

Product Description

A great Stage 1 "starter" mat -  ideal for children from 2.5 years or those writing for the very first time.

Helps little ones build fine motor skills and pen control while they learn to recognise and trace their own name. The shapes and wiggly lines guide small hands, so early writers gain confidence one stroke at a time.

What's Included

  • 1 first name mat (wipeable & double sided)
  • Dotted letters with clear start & end points to encourage correct formation
  • A4 in size
  • Made in the UK

Note: A pen & cloth is only included with the 'Complete Writing Sets'. We sell specialised triangular pens to support correct pencil grip, but any felt-tip pen works on the mats. If unsure, test a small corner and wipe clean. For optimal finger positioning, pair the mats with our triangular pens.

Is this right for my child?

This is perfect if your child is:

  • Beginning to show interest in writing or letters
  • Starting to recognise or write their name
  • Developing early pencil control and hand strength
  • Recommended Age: 3.5+

⭐ An essential first step into building the foundations for confident writing

If you’d like to continue building your child’s writing skills beyond this stage, our recomended Complete Writing Sets take them step-by-step from early name writing through to full writing confidence, including advanced letter formation, surname writing, word and early sentence building, and structured progression across all stages.

👉 Perfect if you want one complete system instead of single-stage practice

Skills your child will build

  • First Name recognition
  • Writing their own name with confidence
  • Pencil grip and fine motor strength
  • Hand-eye coordination
  • Early writing independence
