A family recently shared with me that you can purchase
Crayola Washable Bathtub markers. (Please note you may want to read the reviews - looks like it needs to be cleaned off immediately an only used on smooth bath tubs. I posted a link to Amazon because there's reviews and its faster for me then looking through different websites, but I'm sure you can find them in other places!) It makes it possible for your child to write on the bathtub wall, then splash the wall to clean it off. You could use this tool in many different ways...
- Reading and Writing Skills
- Reinforcing proper pencil grip when drawing pictures or writing
- Practice letter formation
- Say a letter name or sound, have them write it
- Write a letter, have them write it
- Writing their name
- Sight Words
- you write, they read
- you say, they write
- they write a sentence using the word
- Spelling Words (starting in January and if your child is ready for it)
- Say a CVC word like cat, dog, fun - have them tap it and spell it
- Write CVC words - have them tap it and read it
- Math
- Writing numerals
- Writing a Math sentence to go with a picture (starting around December and if your child is ready for it)
- Drawing pictures to show a given number
