For instance we have a shallow box I filled with salt, and she loves practicing writing in the salt. It helps her learn how to form letters without the frustration of forming the letters with a pencil. She also likes using a large whiteboard to practice on. She can write bigger and mistakes can be quickly erased so she doesn't have to spend lots of time erasing and feeling frustrated. Tracing is also great for when she's really in an, "I can't do this!" mood. I acquiesce to writing out her name/the word in dots and she traces the letters. Hope this helps some! You're inspiring!
