Outdoor Wall Handwriting Set (7Pk)

Transform your outdoor learning space into an inspiring literacy wonderland with our Outdoor Wall Handwriting Set! This beautifully crafted resource is designed to bring joy, creativity, and purpose to mark-making and pre-writing activities. A wonderful addition to any EYFS setting, it combines outdoor exploration with essential early literacy skills, making handwriting practice not only effective but also engaging and fun. The sturdy wooden panels are designed with carefully carved grooves that encourage children to trace, fill, and explore through tactile play. Whether using natural materials like acorns, pebbles, or leaves, or adding sensory elements such as sand or felt balls, children will delight in experimenting with textures while strengthening their fine motor control. The inclusion of rectangle panels (50cm) and circular panels (20cm diameter) offers variety, helping children form letters, develop patterns, and enhance their hand–eye coordination in creative ways. These panels can be paired with story sacks, rhyme spoons, or literacy tools to build imaginative storytelling and reading opportunities. Their natural wooden aesthetic ensures they blend beautifully into outdoor play areas, reading corners, or literacy sheds. With a simple six-month treatment, these durable panels are built to withstand the elements, providing long-lasting value. The Outdoor Wall Handwriting Set transforms handwriting practice into an exciting journey of discovery—literacy, fine motor development, and sensory play all in one versatile resource!
