Journal Drawing

Helps your child gain control of a writing tool and

expands her pre-writing skills

What You Need

unlined paper (Young children should not write on lined paper until they are developmentally ready. See page 123) | variety of drawing tools, such as adult-size pencils, washable markers, or crayons

What to Do

• Explain to your child that journaling is a way to tell a story.

• Encourage your child to participate in “journal drawing” by asking her to draw about a particular subject or theme. For example, if you are talking about places where people live, ask her to draw a picture of the place (or places) where she lives.

• Ask her to describe her “journal drawing” to you. Transcribe her words onto the paper and read the dictation back to her. Journals can be wonderful keepsakes from your child’s early years.
