Why Printables Help Preschoolers
Hand strength
Coloring, tracing, and cutting help children practice the grip and control they need for writing.
Early literacy
Tracing letters and words helps children connect letter shapes with sounds.
Number sense
Counting pictures and tracing numbers helps children understand quantity.
Focus and calm
Quiet, hands-on activities give children a break from screens and help them practice paying attention.
Play comes first. Printables work best as one part of learning. Keep sessions to 5 to 15 minutes, since the CDC lists paying attention for 5 to 10 minutes as typical at age 5. Add hands-on play, songs, books, and games, and stop while your child is still having fun.
