I'm looking for something that my DS can use to play around with letters, spelling words etc. He's 6, is completely obsessed with the alphabet/letters/words at the moment, but still really struggles to hold a pencil in anything other than a fist grip, so writing isn't an option right now.
He has been using the foam letters we have in the bathroom but that means he is continually disappearing upstairs to play with them, then calling me up to see what he has written along the edge of the bath. While all the running up and down the stairs is good for my figure, I'd prefer something that we could keep downstairs. Plus we have millions lots of them and they're just too bulky to keep downstairs. And I'd have to cart them back up each evening for bath time.
I'm considering a magnetic board and letters, but wondered if there was something better out there that I don't know about? I've had a google but didn't find anything, but then I don't really know what I'm looking for! Anyone have any suggestions?
