Can anyone tell me if there is anything significant about a child who sometimes uses both hands when scribbling, painting etc? (He's 4). I've only noticed this in the last few weeks, apparently last week at kindy he was painting with a paintbrush in each hand, and then today I noticed him stamping a piece of paper with a stamp in each hand (ink-pad type stamps). I wouldn't be concerned in the least except that I read somewhere that using both hands, or being ambidextrous, can signify some sort of developmental issue. Just wondering if anyone knows... thanks.
