Choosing your writing mat

Starter Mat - If your child is under 3 years, I would start with a pre-writing mat (sold as a single mat or in a pack). This focuses on first name only and pre-writing skills.

Single Mat or Pack - A selection of writing mats can be bought as a pack offering greater value but they can also be purchased as single mats too.

Font - Most children start learning using our standard font but some school will teach using a precursive font (with lead in and exit strokes on the letters). If you know your child will be be taught using precursive handwriting in their reception year then pick a precursive mat.

Description

The perfect way to develop early Writing Skills for Toddlers & Preschoolers.

Help your child build strong pre-writing skills with our Pre-Writing Shapes Activity Mats. These mats will help parents determine when their child is ready to move onto the next stage of formal letter writing.

Ideal for ages 2–3, they support school readiness and encourage independent learning.

Designed especially for toddlers and preschoolers, these educational learning mats support pen control, fine motor development, and early handwriting confidence. Perfect for home learning or early years settings.

Our pack focuses on the 9 key pre-writing shapes that form the foundational strokes  for most letters and numbers. When your child practices these shapes, they are laying the groundwork for writing success – all while having fun!

Key Features

  • Clear Guidance: Unique ‘starting stars’ to show where pencil movement should begin and ‘ending dots’ to indicate where to finish. This ensures your child develops proper habits from the very beginning.
  • A gradual Learning Approach: Our mats provide a structured and gradual path to learning how to write. Designed for developmental stages, we offer Stage 1, Stage 2, and Stage 3 learning mats to ensure your child progresses at their own pace.
  • Bright & Fun Designs: Our mats come in 3 different colourful, engaging designs that make learning exciting, turning practice into play!
  • Less Daunting for Younger Learners: The name mat includes minimal guidelines, making it less intimidating for younger children to start practicing.
  • Wipeable & Reusable: Made for repeated use, these mats are easy to wipe clean with a damp cloth, ensuring endless learning opportunities without the mess.
  • Teacher-Recommended: These mats are trusted by primary school teachers for their effectiveness in building pre-writing skills. Plus, they’ve received great reviews from parents!

What's Included

  • Single Mat Option - Name Mat Only
  • 4 Mat Option - Name Writing Mat | Pen Control | Pre-writing Shapes | Doodle Page
  • 6 Mat Option - As above plus upper & lowercase alphabet & 0-20 number mats

A pen is not included as any felt tip pens work fine and children often like to choose their own colour but a specialised triangular pen to help with finger positioning can be purchased here
