Get ready to scribble, swirl, and zig-zag with The Mark Makers Activity Book – a joyful, hands-on way to support early writing in sensory spaces, schools, and home learning environments. Created by Rachel Fay, a qualified teacher and founder of the award-winning Little Learners programme, this engaging book is packed with activities that help children under 5 build the foundations for confident writing.
At the heart of the programme are four lovable characters, each representing a key mark-making movement found in all letters, numbers, patterns and shapes. There's Lionel the Soldier Mark for straight lines, Archie the Rainbow Mark for curves, Swirlo the Magic Pot Mark for circles, and Ziggy the Monster Mark for zig-zags! With their guidance, children can develop muscle strength, fine motor skills, and mark-making confidence—while having heaps of fun.
Ideal for use in classrooms, sensory rooms, or at the kitchen table, this activity book is a wonderful tool to make writing playful and pressure-free. It’s the perfect way to help your little one "make their mark" on the journey to becoming a confident writer.
