The Foundation for All Subjects
‘Pegs to Paper’ is an innovative educational range designed to help children build the essential foundational skills necessary for literacy and numeracy. Using a unique peg design and pegboards, these products engage young learners in activities that develop key motor and cognitive abilities. The range includes ‘Pattern Pursuit’, a pattern game focused on enhancing fine motor skills and cognitive development, and the ‘Exercises for Handwriting’ sets, which are designed to improve handwriting grip, pen control, and speech and language skills. Together, these tools provide a comprehensive approach to supporting early learning across all subjects.
Developed in partnership with Renowned Educationalist Dr Angela Webb
Dr Angela Webb is a psychologist specialising in the cognitive and academic difficulties experienced by children with developmental disorders, particularly Developmental Coordination Disorder. This has led to her interest in children with handwriting difficulties. She has worked in a multi-disciplinary team at the Queen Anne Street Practice in Central London and as an advisor in schools. She has also lectured part-time at the Institute of Education, London University where her research focuses on the link between handwriting problems and poor written composition. Angela also chaired the National Handwriting Association from 2006 to 2018.
