The Little Launchpad Writing Journey - Set 2 (Printed & Laminated)

Part of a 3-step progressive handwriting series
 
Continue building strong early writing skills with our Letter Formation Guide – Set 2 from Little Launchpad.
This convenient digital download is designed as a natural follow-on from Set 1, supporting children as they move towards more confident and independent letter formation through play-based learning at home, in nurseries, or classrooms.
 
What’s Included
7 printed & laminated sheets 
Instruction & Benefits Guide 
Letter sheets with 4 letters per page 
 
How It Works
Designed as the next step after Set 1, this resource gently reduces support while encouraging independence.
 
Each letter card includes:
Clear start and end points 
A broken yellow guide line to follow 
 
Children are encouraged to rely less on full tracing and begin recalling letter shapes more confidently.
 
Why It’s Effective
This resource is designed around letter formation families - groups of letters that share similar movement patterns, shapes, and starting points.
By learning letters in these groups rather than alphabetical order, children build muscle memory, reduce letter reversals, and develop more efficient handwriting skills.
 
Letter Families Included:
Family 1: Long Ladder Letters 
Family 2: One-Armed Robot Letters 
Family 3: Curly Caterpillar Letters 
Family 4: Zig-Zag Monster Letters
 
Set 2 helps children transition from guided tracing to more independent writing by:
Encouraging refined fine motor control with smaller letter spaces 
Providing reduced visual support to promote memory recall 
Developing accuracy in letter formation 
Building confidence and independence 
Acting as a stepping stone between full guidance (continuous lines) and independent writing (starting points only) 
 
Recommended Use
For best results:
Cut into individual letter cards 
Wipe sheets with a dry cloth straight after use to avoid staining
 
Perfect For
Little learners at home – turning everyday moments into playful learning 
Curious preschoolers building confidence through hands-on fun 
Children getting ready for Preschool or Reception 
Nurseries and classrooms supporting early writing skills
