We were fortunate enough to try out the Scratch and Draw Space book.
A novel and fun, space themed book that encourages children to develop their drawing and mark making skills to create fantastic pictures!
What did we like about it?
- Unusual– The children were transfixed by this book and what they could create. It’s such a brilliant incentive for them to practise their pencil control.
- Portable– It’s the perfect size to fit in a bag to keep children occupied during for car journeys, cafes etc. It also comes with the stylus (that’s attached!) so you don’t need to worry about forgetting or losing it.
- Teaches children about Space: They have cleverly slipped in useful and interesting facts in this books to educate children on Space whilst they are drawing! There’s also a lovely story to engage kids.
- Develops Fine Motor Skills– This is a fantastic resource for developing fine motor skills (read more about this here) and for developing hand strength.
- The Fun Doesn’t End at the End of the Book! What I particularly loved about this book was that they include a section on ‘How to make your own scratch paper’ so that when the books complete children aren’t disappointed, as they can go on to make their own!
