This one is pretty fun for the kids and maybe a little fun for you—this exercise focuses on coloring the letters of the words differently.
Write down a word and ask your kid to write the same word, but each letter should be in a different color.
For instance, you ask them to write the word ‘table,’ now the letter T can be red, A can be blue, B can be yellow, L can be green, and E can be colored as purple.
This method may not sound perfect to you, but it works for little ones because, in their minds, colors are fantastic.

Hou
Hous
House
