Mat man is one of the preschool activities in the Handwriting Without Tears program. The song leads the child through the steps necessary to create the mat man.
I took this picture a while back, just after we got our Handwriting Without Tears program materials. K had seen the mat man done only twice before, & one of those times was last fall. The only help I gave her was to pause the CD long enough for her to get each piece in place before allowing the song to continue.
She actually had the ears & face in a better position, but bumped them when putting the other pieces in place.
She is really enjoying this program!
I started this blog hoping to inspire other parents to help their children with Down syndrome reach for the sky! My daughter was reading words, before she was 2 years of age & reading books by 3.5 years. I believe kids with Down syndrome can do amazing things if we give them the right tools. I truly believe high expectations can make a tremendous difference in the lives of our children!
