Dot To Dot

DS1's daycare teacher sometimes sends home suggestions for activities that go along with a letter of the week. She calls it "homework" which bugs me, but I just ignore that part now.

This week is D and one of the suggestions was doing some Dot To Dots and bringing them in. I drew a boy; it ended up with 47 dots so I did a simpler one with 18. DS1 wanted to do the one with lots of dots first, so he did! Then he did the other one, too. Without any help in counting, finding the dots, or drawing. I am extremely impressed with how well his fine motor skills have progressed recently. Wow!
