[@lizm4595]

Thank you so much for your time, I am an auditory learner and your videos are assisting me with studying. I truly appreciate your willingness to help others!

[@OTRex]

You're very welcome! I'm a visual and auditory learner as well. :) Glad to hear these are helping!

It is easier for me to remember that imitate comes before copying by imagining something that I am bad at like painting. I could follow along with a Bob Ross tutorial (imitate) but if I was told to replicate the final product (copy) I would FAIL.

Love this! This is why visual breakdowns of others doing something novel makes a task so much easier to learn. :)

Thank you for making it visually and cohesive to remember.

When can they start writing an X? Would it be at ages 4-5 when they can write / \ and + ?

[@asma5179]

Thanks for the video 😍 I have a quation about coloring, in any age the child is able to color ??

[@OTRex]

Hi! Kids begin scribbling once they get a grip on a crayon as early as 9 months to age 1. Typically, kids begin to color inside guidelines closer to age 4 since hand dominance is usually set by age 5 and grasp maturity starts around 3.5 years. It ranges depending on the child though. Some kids pick up coloring inside guidelines as early as 3 while others take a little longer so a general window is ages 3-5. Most of the children I've worked with start to grasp to concept around 3.5-4 years.

I love the name of this channel! Is this this video like the Bunty's Wall?

[@OTRex]

Thanks Precious. Bunty's Wall uses the same developmental handwriting milestones on their website. There may be some small differences depending on the source you use but generally this is the same across the board.
