C places the cookie cutters on paper and traces around them. Then he fills in the details to create his Halloween masterpiece. He loves to draw, and the cookie cutters help him add cool details to his art.
This work is great for developing hand strength, concentration, fine motor skills, and control of a pencil/writing utensil.
Most importantly, C thinks this is a lot of fun!

What a great idea, and I love how beautifully his drawing turned out! C looks so proud of his work!! Way to go!
That does look like fun! I have some cookie cutters and now I know what to do with them!
I really like C's drawings - they are so rich in detail. It's a good idea to simplify life for him with cookie cutter shapes. I tried stencil drawings with Anna too, but she wasn't interested yet.
