Wiggly Writers

Introducing the Wiggly Writers programme for pre school aged children.

I have developed this programme to be tailored to meet the needs of the individuals within a small group. This programme includes aspects of ‘The Squiggle into a Writer’ programme created by Shonette Bason as part of her ‘Spread the Happiness School’. I am currently working towards becoming a squiggle accredited teacher as part of this programme. 

 

Developing pre-writing skills is essential for young children as these abilities form the foundation for effective writing and overall literacy development. Engaging in pre-writing activities helps children build fine motor skills, improve hand-eye coordination, and enhance spatial awareness—all crucial for controlling a pencil and forming letters. These skills also support cognitive and language development by encouraging problem-solving, memory, and creative expression. Mastering pre-writing tasks boosts confidence and prepares children for more formal writing instruction in school. 

Your child will have fun while they…

  • Squiggle while they wiggle and Squiggle into a writer (developmentally appropriate programmes to encourage mark making and letter formation).

  • Explore a variety of mark making tools. 

  • Develop pre-writing shapes and patterns that are essential for letter formation.

  • Strengthen their fine motor muscles so that their hands are prepared for writing as their bones and muscles develop. 

  • Make marks and develop these into written language.

  • Create communications and stories using marks, drawings, letters and words. 

  • Write their name and begin to form letters and numbers (as developmentally appropriate).
