Magnetic writing board is one of my daughter’s favorite playthings. She loves to write (can’t read what she write though hehe) and knows how to hold the pen right( see picture below). Her writing stroke is fine at her age (1 and 9 months). I bought this because I want my child to learn how to write and to have a nice penmanship when she grows up. (She’s a girl and for me it’s important for a girl to have a nice penmanship :-) hehe)
Having a magnetic writing board for your child is a good venture if you are looking for a versatile writing board to use during your child’s playtime activity. It is less messy than using chalk board (FYI, chalk dust is considered a health hazard) and it is very easy to use (write and erase). This is not only for children but also for parents who love to write notes and reminders; bills, payments, schedules or even special greetings to family members.
Why it’s educational? Because it promotes your child’s self expression and creativity, it also motivates your child to learn how to write. Exposure to writing at a very young age is a big help for your child to develop a good penmanship in the future.
Handwriting requires the motor coordination of the multiple joints in the hand, wrist, elbow and shoulder to form letters and arrange them. Your child is able to exercise those joints by constant contact to writing boards such as magnetic writing board.
Why it’s safe? Because it will let your child play, explore and learn without getting ink stains and chalk dust. The pen of the magnetic writing board is not pointed or sharp (like those of the ball pen) which simply means that it has less likely to hurt your child. There are no small pieces which can act as a choking hazard (like the chalk itself).
The magnetic writing board also serves as an instrument for me to bond with my daughter considering that I worked from 8am-5pm. I draw things or animals and I let her guess it, then I will congratulate her by clapping my hands and saying “Wow, very good.” if she guesses it right.
Moms, try it! :)
