Designed in partnership with renowned educationalist Dr Angela Webb, Pegs to Paper offers a novel approach to learning for ages 3-5 years. With detailed instructions to guide you through the 3 steps, the programme has been developed to make it as easy as possible for teachers to work with children through the steps. During the programme the children are asked to listen, do, say and draw. All of these exercises help to develop essential skills such as motor development, coordination, linguistics, pen control and letter structure. The key component within the set is our unique ‘Grippy Peg’, which along with our pegboards have been switched to be made from 70% recycled wood pulp to keep our resources sustainable.
This set has all the resources needed for all 3 steps for ages 3-5 years, plus extension exercises for ages 5+ years. For use with 1 table of 4 children.
