Mead Writing Fundamentals Stage 1 Giveaway

Last fall I won a great giveaway in a blog contest. The prize was a set of 4 awesome workbooks from Mead. They are from the Writing Fundamentals Stage 1 series which are for children in pre-K through grade 2. My children are in high school and we don't need these book so, I want to give them to you! This set includes Shape Builders-Learn to Draw with pre-writing shapes, Color Bound-tracing and coloring with raised boundaries, Connect with Color-color sequence dot-to-dots, and Shape Builders-stencil kit with pre-writing shapes. The premise behind these books is building your child's fine motor and pre-writing skills. I honestly wish these had been available when my boys were pre-k age. They are fun and educational and would help to foster great interaction between parent and child.

I would use this for 2 of my kids at home. I have a 4 year old Daughter who is in Pre-K and is learning how to write her name and write her letters. And then I have a 7 year old Son who is in First Grade and needs all the help he can get when it comes to controlling his pencil
